About the Item

Gaelle With Broken Arm - 2021 60 x 50 cm, Edition of 10 + 2 Artist Proofs. Photograph printed in Hahnemühle Baryta Photo Rag 340gr, based on the original reclaimed Fuji Instant Film Negative (not mounted). Signed on back with Certificate. Cristina Fontsaré has a legacy of using Polaroid instant photography to document her daughters and their friends–a photographic process that fades and shifts and is never stable, beautifully matches the fragility of the child, ever developing and morphing into new incarnations of self. Her series, A Crack in the Mirror, echoes an earlier project, Once Upon A Time In My Life, with photographs that are formal, dream-like, and quiet portraits of a particular age. She so beautifully articulates her thinking here, “I am interested in those moments of transition between one evolutionary stage and another, highlighting the imaginary world of childhood that is invisible to the adult gaze, the beauty and fragility of puberty, the contradictions and lights and shadows of growth, the things we leave behind, the adaptation to change, the new incipient subjectivity and the psychological changes that will come and that will distance you from your closest environment: the family, where everything begins and everything ends.“ (Article written by Aline Smiths)

Her-Untitled 2. Abstract figurative color limited edition photograph
Located in Miami Beach, FL
Her-Untitled 2, 2018 by Ying Chen From the Her series Archival pigment print Image size: 24 in. H x 20 in. W Edition of 5 + 1AP Unframed This is a photo contemporary collage project based on modern art. Greatly influenced by natural figures and artificial textures. I love to collect black and white photos of female portraits, cutting out the parts and stripping them from the original context, combining them with the abstract design figure, to get a new composition. This project is about 'she', every single piece has a unique female image, and each composition has a different character. Mysterious women are always a very attractive point to me. Ideally, behind every independent female figure, I want the audience to see a gentle but strong female image. Its basic sense is to make her seem to have life, when she smiles or looks up, every move is gentle and beautiful. "Memory" is another word I would like to mention in this project. Behind every one of my works, there is a memory of different-sometimes or that one day. It almost mirrors my time, my thoughts, and my personality. like a quote from Kurt Cobain's journals "I use bits...
