OBSCURA delves into the tension between what is unseen, what this reveals about the visible, and how it influences the viewer's interpretation. By examining the everyday from his personal, investigative, and experimental perspective, Blom seeks to illuminate what usually remains in the shadows and, conversely, obscure what is typically in the light. This is expressed concretely through stark contrasts between light and darkness, and other times through a more metaphorical approach, where Blom is drawn to subjects that occupy obscure positions in society, or convey meaning through gestures, clothing, and other characteristics that resonate with his artistic vision.
