GIMP 2.8 development still under control
Hello Anna,
When asking for help on any forum, it is a good idea to
let people know a minimum of information:
1. Which platform are you using? [Mac OSX, Linux, FreeBSD, Other?]
2. Which version of The Gimp are you using?
3. Which file format did you save the work as? [.xcf, .jpg, .png, .other?]

saved btw* But when I turned it on again and open Gimp, then try to open the

My best guess at this point is that GIMP gave you the message that the
file was saved, because GIMP was all through with it, but that the
Operating system was not finished writing the file to the disk. When you
shut off the power, nothing further got written, and you have a
corrupted file

Well, now you know why you should NEVER do that. Let this be an
important lesson for you. Unfortunately I don't have a solution for
you in this case...

To help prevent that sort of thing in the future, please give the filesystem
time to flush everything to disk before hitting the power switch.

on how I might proceed?
First just use it to look if there's anything in the file
First just use it to look if there's anything in the file (that it's not
empty or blank - because if it is, there's no point in doing anything
else). If it's not empty, you'll need to find out what's wrong with it -
but since you don't know the XCF format, you'd have to learn that first,

An additional possibility is a local computer shop may have ability
to recover corrupt files. But it will cost something.

Unlikely in this case, since the file probably hasn't even reached the
disk.
