About the Item
In this compelling image by Shani Mootoo—the strategic framing of the photograph draws the viewer’s eye down the length of a long, bright corridor past a succession of glass French doors. But a resting figure on a white bed just visible behind the glass draws the eye inside. This creates a tension between interior and exterior, between known and unknown, public and private. There is a quiet voyeurism at play here. This is Mootoo’s signature—engaging photographs of interior spaces that invite the viewer to discover a personal story. This giclee print is number 1 from an edition of 10.
“The manner in which I take a photo is very much assuring me that what I saw was there—particularly in this day and age when truth and reality seem to be contentious and subjective.” Shani Mootoo

- Sharon's Sunroom 1/5 - A photograph of carefully curated collected itemsBy Shani MootooLocated in Bloomfield, ONKnown for her photographic portraits of interior spaces, Shani Mootoo reveals the curious and often emotive personal narratives of her subjects. This giclee print by Shani Mootoo is editioned, 1/5. The work is matted, framed. Unframed size is 21 x 31.5 inches. It is also available in two other sizes, 12 x 28 (framed 21 x 27 inches, edition of 10, $2,000); and 16 x 24 inches (25 x 33 inches framed, edition of 8, $2,600.). Mootoo describes how this image was created: "I was at my printer's studio working on a body of photographs when we were interrupted by a customer who needed his attention for a few minutes. I agreed on a pause so that that customer could be accommodated, and my printer suggested I roam the garden, as there was a lot to see there. Just before the exit to the garden was a room crammed with pastel knick-knacks. A glass sliding door stood closed between me and this room, which seemed to be a combination of very special private space and a storage room. I immediately had the sense that I was seeing a photograph waiting to be taken and, as I had my Sony Rx100m7 camera around my neck, I ran back to my printer and asked if I could go into the room. He generously said, 'By all means, go wherever you'd like". On entering, there wasn't much room to negotiate, but I was struck by the carefully...Category
