They seem like formations made of shadows, structures made of black and grey. Far from the colourful world of adverts and lifestyle photographs, the figures in Sarah Moon’s images inhabit a realm between painting and photography, fantasy and reality. Since the 1970s, the French artist has maintained her reputation as a revolutionary of fashion photography, whose dreamlike images have brought a sense of poetry to an otherwise perfection-driven genre. With Time at Work, the Galleria Carla Sozzani presents 90 photographs, spanning from 1995 to 2018. “This is the story of time passing; how time erases,” is how Moon describes the show. “Here and now, this story I tell is not totally mine, but the story of these photographs before they disappear. It is time at work.”
The result is a stunning showcase inspired by the artist’s memories, experiences and emotions.
