Dear Art lovers and enthusiasts mark your calendars on Friday, July 19 at 19:00, Rachele Frison’s much-anticipated solo exhibition „Mythic Woods“ opens online with an immersive virtual tour on the Haze. Gallery platform, running until August 4.

Curated by Irina Rusinovich with meticulous care, „Mythic Woods“ shows the mystical charm of woodland settings, inviting viewers into a kingdom of fairy tales. Frison’s latest works delve deep into an enchanted forest, where each painting is a dynamic narrative unfolding across the canvas. These narratives interweave to create a larger story, capturing the very essence of this mythical world.

Frison’s art is celebrated for its ability to merge the mystical with the mundane, drawing viewers into an immersive experience filled with rich, vibrant colors and intricate details. The enchanted forest in her paintings is not just a setting but a metaphorical meeting point for civilizations, representing the earliest connections through shared stories and legends. This narrative tradition is central to Frison’s artistic exploration, bringing to life shapes, colors, and scenarios that evoke collective memories.

„Through her works, Frison taps into a universal language of myth and legend, transcending time and culture. Each painting is a testament to the enduring power of these stories, offering a glimpse into the shared human experience,“ notes the curator. „The rich, vibrant colors and intricate details in her paintings not only captivate the eye but also stir the imagination, reminding us of the timeless allure of the enchanted forest.“, – curator Irina Rusinovich.

Join us on Friday, July 19 at 19:00 for the virtual opening of „Mythic Woods“ on the Haze.Gallery platform and experience the magical world of Rachele Frison.

Step into the world of photography through the lens of Amsterdam-based photographer Nina Hauben. A graduate of the esteemed Amsterdam Fashion Institute in International Fashion Management, Hauben’s work reflects a unique blend of artistry and innovation. With upcoming exhibitions at Haute Photographie in Amsterdam, as well as a showcase at NockNock Art, Hauben’s visual storytelling continues to captivate audiences.

Can you share with us your journey as a photographer, starting from your graduation at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute?

My journey as a photographer unfolded organically after completing my studies at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute in Fashion Management. While I began my career in Fashion Marketing and Art Direction, I soon found myself drawn to the visual aspects, alongside my growing desire for entrepreneurial exploration. Now, all these elements blend seamlessly into my journey as a photographer.

How do you blend elements of fine art and fashion in your photography work, and what inspires this unique fusion?
My work serves as a visual narrative of (un)spoken words, mostly in black and white. My process is intuitive, often inspired by my emotions and experiences. I see photography as a unique language I need to “speak” to express feelings. I start by conceptualizing ideas that personally resonate with me, drawing from my life and observations. From there, I collaborate closely with a creative team to bring these concepts to life. Throughout the process, I remain open to spontaneity, allowing for the unexpected to shape the final outcome.

Could you tell us about your experience showcasing your work at Haute Photographie in Rotterdam in 2024? What was the response to your exhibition?
Exhibiting at Haute Photographie in Rotterdam, the Netherlands was a great experience, at this exhibition the series “With(out) “ was presented. This series is about:
“In the end, all that’s left are memories we have. It’s a fear that memories, like wisps of smoke, will dissipate with time, leaving me with a void that cannot be filled. I wish I could have collected more of these memories. As I can’t hear your voice, your footsteps, or feel your presence, I have to pretend, so that’s what I do.”
It was rewarding to see how people reacted to the work, resonated with people and started conversation. At the moment I’m already preparing for the next edition in Amsterdam in September.

Looking ahead, what are your aspirations or goals as a fine art and fashion photographer based in Amsterdam?

I always say, the most important journey you can take is one of self-discovery. Through my work, I’ve discovered more about myself. This continuous process of creation provides something that I can always reflect upon later. There’s still much to learn, as long as I’m creating I’m confident that I’m on the right path. However, my ambitions extend beyond personal exploration; my goal is expanding my work and style.
