Roxane II (signed)

by Viviane Sassen


Photographs: Viviane Sassen

Text: Maria Barnas

Publisher: oodee books

152 pages

Year: 2017

ISBN: 978-0-9570389-9-8

Price: 78

Comments: Screen printed hardcover, 33 x 24,5cm, one corner is very slightly bumped

In Roxane II, Viviane Sassen and her muse Roxane continue writing their shared visual journal. The dynamic gallery of poses and moods touches notes at times sensual, at times tender. Images are equally about the performances in front of and behind the camera: Sassen's presence is perceived through her shadow and made tangible by scraps of paper that bear the imprint of her breasts. This is a mutual portrait, an exchange in which the artist's and model's individualities blur, leaving traces on each other.

As Maria Barnas writes in the poem introducing the images: "When I take a glance at our selves I hold my breath and see us expand in colours and clouds bursting from a mouth. Are they yours or mine?"
