Sheree Hovsepian - diskuze

Exploring the process and materiality of photography through subjective and textural interpretations of the figureIranian American artist Sheree Hovsepian’s (born 1974) practice highlights the physicality of photography and its relationship to the human body. She employs ceramic, string, nylon and velvet alongside printed images in her assemblages to compose a sense of the framed physical body. Coaxed into sculptural forms, layered with tactile materials and assembled into larger compositions, her work oscillates between object and image, creating an embodied experience of the photographic document. As the artist states in her conversation with Charlotte Cotton, "I am interested in creating a narrative between the materials and the objects I choose to photograph. Many of the components of the collage allow me to work with my hands, which is a very satisfying practice and permits me to put in the hours to physically understand its material language." This monograph presents Hovsepian’s photographs, ink drawings, photograms, assemblages and sculptures, collected for the first time in a publication.
