In her work, the immaterial nature of digital files is transformed into something very tangible. While the results may evoke painterly qualities, she deliberately preserves and highlights the presence of pixels and digital artifacts, making them an integral part of the final composition.
We are thrilled to open the fall season with Eva-Teréz Gölin's third exhibition with the gallery.
Eva-Teréz Gölin’s practice is rooted in the digital photographic image and for a decade she has, through various digital processes, explored the outer boundaries of the photographic medium. For each new body of work, she has been digging deeper into the invisible layers of contemporary online imagery, further investigating the digital as a physical medium. In her hands the immaterial qualities of the digital files are transformed into something very tangible and although her work may evoke painterly qualities, she takes care to render pixels and digital artifacts fully visible in the final works.
Eva-Teréz Gölin is currently one of four Swedish artists selected for the six month IASPIS Stockholm residency for artistic development, at The Swedish Arts Grants Committee. There she, through a combination of techniques that predate the advent of photography, and the post-photographic, explores yet new ways to physically represent the digital medium.
Eva-Teréz Gölin lives and works in Gothenburg. She has studied at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, Novia University of Applied Sciences in Jakobstad, and holds an MFA in Photography from the The Valand Academy in Gothenburg. She has had two solo exhibitions with the gallery: For the Want of More (2019) and In Absence of Shadow (2022). Eva-Teréz Gölin has been awarded working grants from Swedish Authors’ Fund, The Swedish Arts Grants Committee, Västra Götalandsregionen, and Helge Ax:son Johnson Foundation, and her work is in the collections of Region Stockholm, Göteborg Konst, and Konstenheten Västra Götalandsregionen among others.
