Text by the author:
“The shadow tells us where the light comes from.
In this space, consisting of two cubes that form a single room, the installation ‘The Shadow Tells Us Where the Light Comes From’ questions the idea of “point of view”.
This immersive work invites the viewer to enter a bubble where time seems to have stopped. A place where the absence, oscillate between the trace of what is no longer there and an invitation to what could be.
Where should we look?
What should we see?“

The SNRA residence draws attention to the role of culture and art during the russian-Ukrainian war, aims to implement institutionally critical projects related to cultural heritage, development of artistic-cultural institutions. The SNRA residency program, the Barbara Le Béguec Friedman’s participation and her exhibition were implemented thanks to the grant support from The Académie des beaux-arts in Paris (French Academy of Fine Arts)
