Je dilaté, images liquides et plantes carnivores
Jagna Ciuchta's first monograph
This first monograph on the work of Jagna Ciuchta retraces thirteen years of a polymorphous practice that constantly recomposes itself, drawing on past productions and their documentation.
Je dilaté, images liquides et plantes carnivores reflects the collective, reflexive and evolving logic of Ciuchta's work. It opens with a visual essay that, by combining contributions from guest artists with images from Ciuchta's photographic archive, reiterates the shared experience of auctoriality that characterizes her work. It then brings together six new essays examining key moments in her work, process, methodologies and work ethic, as well as twenty image portfolios organized to reflect the singularity of each of the artist's projects.
