Known for her photographs of the female body that challenge stereotypes of feminine beauty, Senta Simond presents here a collection of previously unseen videos and photos, the centerpiece of which is a diptych combining video and photography. It is a visual and aural dialogue between two young women who have never met in person: a young Ukrainian dancer and an Irish harpist. Using close-ups, Simond presents an intimate, mysterious and sensual work that questions our relationship with the other. She mixes her images with sequences filmed by the two young women, experimenting with notions of staging and performance, improvisation and chance.
Curator: Laurie Hurwitz
