Iva Dimeska\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s latest exhibition \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Colors and Sand\u00e2\u20ac\u009d embraces Africa, a continent that thrills with its warmth and vibrancy. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With her choice, Iva combines rural portraits with calm, deep, gray-blue ocean seashores. The eye of the camera leads us into a relaxed promenade through the Kenyan village, alley after alley, hut after hut, so our gaze would finally settle over the infinite coastline. Her portraits illustrate rural everyday life, while some of them are a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153blow up\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of intimacy and reflection of the individual\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s joy of life. The photographer meets eyes that engage us into a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153long\u00e2\u20ac\u009d stare and extensive attention. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Africa that Iva presents is not wild, but it is not peaceful either. It is looking at us with amazement and anticipation, ready to give in once we recognize it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
