This book gathers a decade of celebrated artist Elle Pérez’s reflections around photography. A collage of loose thoughts, letters, press articles and reviews, text messages, pictures, sketches, responses, emails, notes, and lectures, the book explores what Pérez chooses to photograph and what photography means to them. It is a tapestry of personal insights, intimate moments, and candid reflections, all woven through the medium.
Objektiv Press was founded in 2009 and began as a biannual journal of lens based art. After ten years of exploring this format, Objektiv Press transitioned into a more book-like publication, where they let just one writer fill the pages with their real and raw opinions, writing about different trends within the medium. Since 2020, Objektiv Press has invited different people—photographers, critics, curators—to reflect on their relationship with photography through a longer essay.
Objektiv Press was founded and is run by Nina Strand. Ida Kierulf and Susanne Østby Sæther have been on the editorial board since the first issue. Brian Sholis and Lucas Blalock joined the board in 2016.
