Jugaad in Hindi is used to describe a bringing together of ad hoc elements to create something functional or useful; although sometimes the word is considered to imply “settling” Stella Berkofsky’s (b. 1991, British) uncompromising interpretation of the word leans more toward humor and innovation; finding the beauty in the unseen.
Photographed over five years in various corners of the world, Berkofsky’s Jugaad is a carrier bag of field notes collected while in exploration of heartlands. At play between body and landscape, literal and composed, the images are at once cartography and tapestry. Found objects form signs, figures wearing seams or shadows become maps; the details often overlooked show us the way home.

Olivia Malone – Tonal
Books & MagazinesA constellation of freckles. Interlocked knees. A folded torso. The feminine rendered sculptural. Olivia Malone’s (b. 1982, American) Tonal is, at its core, a study of color. Married with her interest in the natural abstractions possible within the female form, the book is an embodied spectrum. Through fragmentation, Malone twists and turns the body into new shapes; a unique perspective transforming details of the figure into the unrecognizable. By the introduction of a myriad of textures, the project plays with light and material to create the desired tone. Not being defined or limited by skin tone, each photograph becomes hue specific. Whites, pinks, reds and browns are generated and assembled into a gradient of images, taking us from the absence of tone to the richly saturated and back again. Each image then stands alone as a sensorial study while also shaping the larger body collage. Whether submerged, contorted, or embraced, the language of the female body is redefined through distinct contours and imprints left behind.

A Study on Folds – Carlotta Manaigo
Books & MagazinesSeasons Series draws inspiration from Kim Ki-Duk’s seminal film Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter… and Spring in which different actors, for each season, play the same character who is abandoned on a lake next to a floating monastery. The film specifically focuses on the shifting nature of the seasons and its effects on the protagonist’s fosterage. The books take their lead from the film in that simple and profound ideas, human passions and spirituality can be perceived differently depending on the season.

Katrien De Blauwer – I Close My Eyes, Then I Drift Away
Books & MagazinesThe idea for I Close My Eyes, Then I Drift Away by Katrien De Blauwer (b. 1969, Belgian) was founded as a commission for De Blauwer to anatomise archival works of François Halard (b. 1961, French) into a new and rare narrative. With a seductive and dreamlike state, bordering femininity and masculinity, she lets the observer immerse by the means of power structures and illusions, with nuances and parables to the contrasting career of Halard’s, yet with the most imaginable awe.
