Dorothée Nilsson Gallery is happy to present the exhibition Shadow Works, Living the Dream by Swedish artist Martina Hoogland Ivanow. For her third solo exhibition at the gallery Hoogland Ivanow is presenting selected images from her new book Shadow Works, Living the Dream, alongside a selection of her films looking at the complex and contradictory in contemporary life. A site-specific piece consisting of overexposed photographic material complements the exhibition.
Martina Hoogland Ivanow is an artist working primarily with photography and film, exploring the interplay between filtered light, sound, and image. After an acclaimed early career as an international photographer in New York, Paris, and London, she established her art practice in Stockholm in 2002, where she continues to live and work.
Shadow Works, Living the Dream, published by Livraison Books in 2025, presents a newly edited selection spanning thirty years of photography. The book includes images from her series Speedway (2002 - 2005), Far Too Close (2002 – 2007), Elephant and Castle (2009), Satellite (2009 – 2010), Circular Wait (2010 - 2014), Early Reading (2016 - 2018), Re-enactment (2016 - 2019) and Second Nature (2019 – 2024). It also features fashion editorial work from 1994 to the early 2000s, originally published in Dazed & Confused, The Face, and Another.
