Moyra Davey - Portrait Mode - n.b.k. Ausstellungen Bd. 30

Portrait Mode presents a new essay by artist, photographer, writer, and filmmaker Moyra Davey. In aphoristic texts paired with her own photographs, Davey interweaves accounts of her experiences as a photographer with reflections on canonical practitioners and theorists of the medium. With a particular focus on framing, light, contingency, and temporality, she considers the work of photographers who have challenged conventions of (self) portraiture and representation, connecting their approaches to contemporary queer and feminist protagonists of the genre.
