Sheree Hovsepian investigates form through concealment and thoughtful moments of revealing, with a close eye on the forms of the human body. Cropping, obscuration, and negative space become key elements in photogram assemblages. The relationship between figure and space feels performative, evoking the act creating a photogram itself. Light hits the photo-sensitive paper in a carefully controlled process, with areas kept free of the effects of light equally important to the composition. In our edition, Hovsepian’s central rounded figure mimics a curved edge; the juxtaposition of a thin thread adds a delicate tension to the folded back. Stillness and motion find a quiet balance, a moment of weight in ethereality.
