Exploring concepts of weight and presence, Lightness by Frieke Janssens uses a sculptural and tactile visual approach to probe the boundaries between materiality and intangibility. The photographs examine how light interacts with surfaces, creating a nuanced dialogue between shadows, textures, and form that questions the physical and metaphysical properties of objects and space.

Through restrained compositions and subtle contrasts, Janssens cultivates a contemplative mood, inviting viewers to consider the balance between heaviness and delicacy. The series provokes reflection on perception and the ephemeral qualities of light as both a physical phenomenon and a metaphor for emotional or existential states. The book spans 57 pages, encapsulating this thematic inquiry in a compact format from its 2022 publication.
