No one uses the camera like the photographer Niko Luoma. He is not
interested in capturing the world in front of his lens. He uses
light to create his own visual spheres. Using up to a thousand
multiple exposures he applies individual elements of color and form
to the negative, layer by layer. Meticulous calculations and
geometrical skills are the necessary foundation for this. The
results are abstract photographs of impressive, colorful intensity
and luminosity. This book of photos is based on the series
Adaptions, which reproduces famous works by other artists. Luoma
presents a fascinating visual game in which the independent
charisma of the photographs acts in concert with its reverence
toward Bacon, Hockney, Van Gogh, or Picasso. With tongue in cheek,
Luoma thus realizes the avant-garde’s desire to liberate
photography from reproducing reality, allowing it to become an art.
