This is the written part of a photographic project investigating the importance of books in an artistÕs life. In collaboration with artists, writers, educators, students, and photographers of my acquaintence during 2008-2011. Each person was asked to make a list and then a statement about the 20 most important or significant books from their life so far. I visited them and made a photograph of the books so that only the spines were legible and then printed the image to life size.
A self portrait as a literary still life.
