Gloria Galovic

Young artist Gloria Galo­vic (b. 1993) from Wet­tin­gen descri­bes hers­elf as obses­sed with pic­ture-taking and rea­lity-framing. She cap­tures wha­te­ver comes in front of her lens. Her favou­rite motifs are people, in groups or at spe­cial moments. Her docu­men­tary pho­to­graphs of tra­vel­lers at tou­rist hot­spots and her pho­to­gra­phic enga­ge­ment with her own family during the Covid pan­de­mic oscil­late bet­ween snapshot-like rand­om­ness and pre­cis­ely thought-out com­po­si­tion. For ART FLOW, Galo­vic has obser­ved the lei­sure cul­ture along the Limmat River, thus pro­du­cing striking images that docu­ment a diverse range of acti­vi­ties: The banal lei­sure-time beha­viour of a society geared towards con­sump­tion meets caring, com­mit­ted inter­ac­tion with nature.
