Loredana Nemes: Silent Nature in Milan

exhibition · 2026-04-27

Loredana Nemes (born 1972, Sibiu) presents her series Greytree and Heavensea (2019/2023) at Galleria Podbielski in Milan. The Romanian-born, German-based artist, who studied mathematics and philology before turning to photography in 2001, captures the beech forest and sea on the island of Rügen, Germany, through the four seasons. Her black-and-white images, blending sharpness and blur, evoke poetic and disorienting visions where physical and mental boundaries dissolve. Nemes, who left Romania for Germany in 1986, describes the place as one that 'maybe called me.' The exhibition runs until a date not specified in the source.
