Mirror Image — Hannah Hughes. Published by Jane & Jeremy.
I keep returning to the enigmas within this delicate little book. Hughes excises the negative space from photographs and renders the cut-outs in three-dimensions, then rephotographs the resultant forms. It is a play on photography, on paper, on hue, on the exquisite joy of close looking, and on the power of destabilization.
