Photobook Sessions

On Monday 13th December, will be looking at ‘Still Here’ by Vivian Rutsch.

In a deeply personal and overwhelming work, the artist asks poignantly searching questions while addressing difficult subject matter including: sexual abuse, family trauma, loss and failures of the state.

Vivian speaks of the work:

“There are two things my sister’s death has taught me: you can’t lose someone you love, and every cruelty you can imagine does exist.”
