It‘s all about the river and the essence of the flow. A gust of wind that sets the ears of corn in the field in motion - nothing and yet part of the sum of our existence."
Eva-Maria Raab is an Austrian visual artist whose work delves into the ephemeral aspects of nature, utilizing cameraless photography techniques like cyanotypes to capture transient phenomena such as light, shadow, and movement. Her poetic and experimental approach has been showcased internationally and is featured in several prominent public and private art collections. She graduated from the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris (2010) and the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna (2007). Since 2015, she has been creating "live prints" by exposing light-sensitive paper directly in natural settings - often incorporating elements like river water, driftwood, or her own body—to explore themes of time, space, and the impermanence of existence. Movement, object, year, season and time of day are left to inscribe themselves poetically onto the paper.
"I capture what is fleeting and use cyanotypes to ask questions about the essence of nature and its transience. My photographic experiments capture the soul of nature in a direct and pure manner."
