Jodi Bieber’s latest exhibition, entitled Between Darkness and Light, opened at the Goodman Gallery last week.
The show comprises a selection of works from 1993 – 2004, showcasing Bieber’s early work as a press photographer. Bieber, winner of the 2010 World Press Photo of the Year, explains: “For me, photography was a vehicle to discover my country… From the very beginning I was working on my own projects and doing my newspaper and magazine assignment work as well, both were equally important to me – imagine covering the first democratic elections! But while you’re covering it, you’re still a person and there was a lot of death happening around me… even though it was a jubilant time.”
The exhibition runs from the 31st of March to the 30th of April 2011. The printing was done by Vincent van Graan at the Orms Prophoto Lab, and the framing was done by Framed By Orms.
“…I was in quite a dark space, but the country was moving into lightness.” – Jodi Bieber
