Inhaltsangabe

<div>Created over an almost 20-year span and drawing from 18 bodies of work, this is the first published monograph of Aline Smithson&#8217;s work and features her defining series <i>Arrangement in Green and Black: Portrait of the Photographer&#8217;s Mother</i>. From black-and-white to hand-painted photographs, this collection of portraits combines humor and family to create a universal expression of motherhood, to capture the essence of childhood, and to examine created realities, the poignancy of childhood, and the pathos of aging and relationships. She brings a background in painting and fashion to her images, but at the heart of her work is her ability to recognize the inner self of her subjects. The photographer considers all her portraits as a reflection of herself and the stories she wants to tell and in this way she has created a visual language that is her own unique autobiography.</div>

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Self & Others is an almost twenty-year culmination of portrait photographs captured by award-winning photographer Aline Smithson. Beginning with her early forays into black and white work, produced as darkroom silver gelatin prints, she photographed the world around her considering the poignancy of childhood and the pathos of aging and relationships. The book continues with her hand-painted photographs featuring her defining series, Arrangement in Green and Black: Portrait of the Photographer's Mother, where she combines humour and family to create a universal expression of motherhood. The book is completed by her colour projects that revisit beauty, the essence of childhood, and an examination of created realities. At the heart of Aline's work is her ability to recognize the inner self of her subjects; she considers all her portraits a reflection of herself and the stories she wants to tell, and in that way, she has created a visual language that is her own unique autobiography.
