Belinda Hogg, Echoes of Form (LIGHT/SHADOW - Entries close 30 September 2026)

This black-and-white photograph explores the delicate relationship between structural geometry, light, and organic life. Nestled tightly in the intersection of two stark white walls, a Monstera deliciosa leaf serves as both a physical entity and a catalyst for abstraction. The hard, angular shadow cutting across the upper frame establishes a rigid architectural boundary, which directly contrasts with the soft, fenestrated curves of the foliage.The core of the piece lies in the dialogue between the physical leaf and its cast shadows. As light passes through the plant's natural perforations, it projects a layered, secondary echo onto the adjacent wall. This duplication blurs the line between the tangible object and its transient silhouette, transforming a simple indoor corner into a dynamic study of texture, depth, and stillness.
