Eight poems by
Eight poems by is an editorial collection by BilderAtlas, aiming at presenting an account of women’s contemporary visual investigations.
Characterised by a system of white slipcases and available in limited numbers, Eight poems by is devoted to photography as an art practice. Every object visually displays a dialogue between the photographer and its subjects, forming a published constellation of collectively-made portraits and worlds. A textual afterimage consisting of two cards with an eight-question interview to the artist accompanies the artwork.
The series has a non-linear, multifaceted approach that is a testament to feminism’s non-ideological thought, and to the idea of moving between unique standpoints with authenticity and freedom. These perspectives are enhanced by drawing attention to the artists’ own identities, shedding light on female subjectivity as a response to the crucial necessity of revealing the complexity and forcefulness of women’s vision. Acts of self-expression, personal histories – the works are materialised into objects that exist within a communal curatorial system, informing and building on one another into a living archive made available to the public. Each project is thus an island, a panel, a shared space.
Eight poems by goes in tandem with BilderAtlas multiple activities, allowing artworks to circulate internationally through its collectible editions, making current developments in the lens-based media field available to a larger audience.
