Afterimage is an optically-charged photographic work which transforms the camera from a device of documentation into a conduit for painting with light.
The camera is often seen as an objective, impartial eye, but like human perception, is flawed and full of fallacies. In this new technique, Smith embraces this instability by playfully layering surface and light within the image plane, destablising the camera’s visual input. Here, colour does not simply rest upon a surface; it spills, resists, and coalesces for a fleeting moment before being preserved in ink.
Artist Bio: Smith uses our perceptual fallacies to create dynamic and experimental art experiences for her viewers, aiming to involve her audience in questioning their own experience of her work. She made her 2020 debut with her solo exhibition Lucent Nebulous with Gallery Jeeum in Hong Kong, before returning to Australia. She was the winner of the Biennale of Colour and Light in 2024.
