Work and Life
Much of Szilit’s work shows her desire to reclaim her equally strong interest in film,
photography and painting. Experimenting with the stunning impact of their interaction,
she has refined her process down to diffuse the borders between them, and is intensely
engaged in transforming the filmic process into the photographical, and the photographical
into the painterly process. Her motives are produces on High Quality Photo Archive Paper,
backed on aluminium plate covered by plexiglass, or, more lately, is presented on Dibond,
tightly framed, and covered by Museum glass.
