10·Corso·Como presents the most comprehensive exhibition to date showcasing the work of US artist Talia Chetrit.
Through her straightforward yet nuanced use of the camera, Chetrit draws on the history of the medium of photography while expanding contemporary notions of self-representation, sexuality, power, and relationship. In so doing, she produces images that are at once elaborately conceived, lyrical, and provocative.
Fusing emotional intensity with a specific approach to composition, her pictures can be understood as an exercise in what it means to look and what it feels like to pose; an exploration of the formal implications of the act of framing and the psychological dynamics of becoming the subject of an image.
