Photography
Carlotta Corpron was an American photographer and light artist who pioneered experimental abstraction through direct manipulation of light and photographic materials. Working primarily in the 1940s and 1950s, she created luminous compositions by projecting light through sculptural forms and translucent objects onto photographic paper, treating light itself as a sculptural medium. Her work anticipated later developments in kinetic and immersive art, though remained largely undocumented during her lifetime.
