Gallery artist Jessica Backhaus’s beautiful new book “Cut Outs” is published by Kehrer and out now!
In her previous publication “A Trilogy” (Kehrer, 2017), Jessica Backhaus has taken a path into abstraction that is resolutely continued here – using altogether analog, photographic means. Cut out transparent paper reacts to the heat of intense sunlight, deforms, rises, and casts shadows. The photographer who arranged and staged these compositions becomes an astonished observer of events on which she has only limited influence, a documentarist of a visual experiment, a poetic choreography of intense colors in the sunlight.
