Erica Nyholm’s photographic body of work is full of reflections and mirror-images, interconnected poses and gestures. In her photography, there comes to light a whole web of effects of mimicry and imitation. It is almost as if photography, in her artistic practice, were understood as a play of reflection and refraction but not in the usual of sense of a momentary scene engraving itself on the photosensitive filmic surface by refracted light travelling through the camera’s aperture – instead, it is as if everything around her were sensitized to light refracted by another surface, as if every subject were already a reflection of another.
