Kimberly Poppe
Kimberly Poppe (b. Boston, 1974) is an American abstract and contemplative photographer based in Spain. Her photographic practice is rooted in fresh, direct, present-moment perception. Drawn instinctively to colour, light, and coincidence, Poppe delights in noticing and photographing the extraordinary in the ordinary, inviting viewers into the quiet intensity of her encounters with the world. Her practice spans two principal bodies of work: graphic, color-field compositions of everyday detail, and a series of large-format abstract seascapes made with long exposures and deliberate camera movement. Poppe recently completed a large scale multi-year commission as the featured artist across Brittany Ferries' new fleet of five cruise ferries, and her Eventides series is permanently installed at the Hotel Arts Barcelona. Her artwork has been exhibited internationally, featured in The Guardian, Architectural Digest, and Elle Decor, and is held in private collections worldwide.
