The Fragile Blade
Musler, Jessica
Regular price €25,00
“The Fragile Blade is a project which considers how we can relate to our bodies. This project began during my practice as a studio photographer, where I portrayed performers: dancers, artists, and members of the kink and fetish scene. These performers engage with the body in dynamics of power and control, beauty and vulnerability.
The body is a contested space, personally and politically. It is full of contradictions, impossible to cleanly and neatly express. It is intimately and inseparably entwined with our very being, our perception and our memory.
Thus follows the question: Whose body is this?”
Reproduced (mostly b/w) photographs of models with a unique and expressive physical presence.
Soft cover, 29,5 x 21 cm, 110 not numbered pages, n.p. (2025)
