About Viviane Sassen: Umbra
This latest book by Viviane Sassen, one of the world’s most acclaimed photographers, explores the concept of shadow in a series of stunning images. Based on an award-winning exhibition, Viviane Sassen’s new book focuses on a common theme in her photographs: shadow. In this book she leads us through a series of thought-provokingtakes on the concept―shadow as metaphor for anxiety anddesire; as a symbol of both memory and hope for the future;and as an evocation of imagination and illusion. Sassen’swork is renowned for its deft interplay between realism andabstraction. Here that characteristic emerges in the dramaticuse of light, shadow and color, as well as the adroit croppingof images and interventions on the prints. This lovely bookbrilliantly accentuates Sassen’s contrasting color schemes toreinforce the idea of shadow creating an enthralling tactile andvisual experience.
