3D photography exhibition opens at New Holland

5 August 2013

A new exhibition exploring 3D-photography has opened at a pop-up branch of Moscow’s Pobeda Gallery on the island of New Holland in St Petersburg. French photographer, filmmaker and writer Mireille Loup’s series of photos, 53.77, tells the story of a young girl and boy who share the same space but never interact.

A ghostly feeling permeates all of the images as the subjects inhabit bare and spacious settings, often wearing forlorn facial expressions. However, the cold and grey-toned images come to life as soon as the spectator puts on a pair of 3D glasses.

Loup has had her work included in numerous collections around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Museu da Imagem in Braga (Portgual) and the Mario Testino collection in paris. The exhibition at the Pobeda Gallery pop-up will run until 16 August.
