About The Artwork
"These meditative visions of seascapes capture what we all crave, not the infinite, but time. Shot through long exposures, these soothing images offer us the promise of calm through colour, light and water." —Adriana Marquez, curator "Poppe’s work has an immense feeling of spirituality. In her own words, she creates art that 'gives people's minds the space to rest'. Shot through long exposures at dusk, the weather, light and water create an illusion of floating bands of colour, culminating in a single moment of perfection." —Mandy Poernig Mirror-like twilight at Blueys Beach, NSW, Australia. "Twilight" is part of Kimberly Poppe's "Eventide" series (noun, archaic literary: the end of the day; evening). Most images in the series are of places where there are tides (ocean, salt lakes) as they meet that time of day known as dusk, twilight or eventide. Created with a slow shutter and deliberate camera movement, the images combine the different elements of earth, water, air and fire. They are also inspired by Kimberly's long standing obsession with Mark Rothko’s paintings and the meditative quality of his work. In a limited edition of 50, this image is printed directly onto a sheet of 1/16" thick aluminum. The high gloss of the aluminum sheet complements the rich colors of the image to produce stunning results. The aluminum sheet is offset from the wall by a 3/4" thick wooden frame which is attached to the back. The wooden frame includes a hanging wire for easy mounting and arrives "ready to hang".

Netherlands
Originally from the USA, Kimberly Poppe is a contemporary fine art photographer based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Through refined compositions that move from emotive abstraction to playful graphic impact, she aims to transmit a moment of pure ‘seeing’ to the viewer. She is a proponent of Contemplative Photography and also works as an independent art advisor, curator and designer. With Eventides, the series that is featured on Saatchi Art, Poppe takes us to the edge, the boundary between the sea and sky, the land and water, and the day and evening. These abstract landscapes hum and slide between clarity and abstraction, leaving us on the brink of fluid twilight. Depicting the ocean and other bodies of water such as large salt lakes, these linear compositions are long, sometimes sliding, views into the distance. Some draw you in, with distant chinks of reflected light on smooth water where others are flattened as if by a haze of weather, becoming even closer to the Modernist colour field paintings that are a longstanding inspiration to the artist. The meditative sublime recognised within Mark Rothko’s work is a touch point for Poppe, prompting commitment to both the experiencing of the view and the sharing of the resulting photographs. Taken with long exposures and deliberate movement these photographs confer the visceral experience of standing before that changing, liminal environment to a viewer in the gallery. The cleansing, calming and turbulent effect of a sea view is always going to need more than an accurate photographic depiction and these images seek out that moment of being within the view at a potent time of transition.
