Recommendation
Elein Fleiss "L’Hiver"
| "The three women I photographed are friends who live in the same village and surroundings as me. But like me, they also came from elsewhere. I had a vision of women dressed in off-white wool garments and walking in winter landscapes. I started from there. Everything else—post-industrial landscapes, nuclear power plants, and even makeup—came by chance and coincidentally changed the direction of my project. When I say “came by chance,” I mean I decided to let the unexpected come in, which somehow made sense to me.” Elein Fleiss Produced for the exhibition of the same name held at Vacant/Centre (Tokyo) and Elbereth (Kyoto) To coincide with these exhibitions, a booklet entitled L’Hiver will be published. L’Hiver interweaves selections from the past two decades of her diary writing along with her photographic works. The cover is a two-color risograph print replicating the artist’s photograph. Elein co-founded the magazine Purple, which she edited from the 1990s through the early 2000s, followed by Purple Journal from 2003 to 2007. Currently living in a country town in the southwest of France, she continues her engagement with writing and photography. Attention Due to the nature of the risograph printing on the booklet cover, the ink may easily transfer to your hands. Please avoid rubbing it and be cautious of color transfer to other items. We recommend storing it in a protective film. Released on October 22, 2024 14.8cm x 19.5 cm 24 page Published by COSMIC WONDER & Vacant |
