The work of Samela Otoviç is primarily concerned with the effect of light and space on people's perception of artworks. Beginning with an exploration into the process of painting this has extended into the manipulation of light to create immersive sculptural installations. Alongside a selection of her paintings Otovic will be presenting an installation that focuses on the physicality of the environment through the de-materialised potential of light.
