FRIDA FOREVER
2025
"During her many hospital stays, she has photographed herself, the hospital space, and her surroundings. The raw and tender images are juxtaposed with depictions of her transition from youth to adulthood, poignantly illustrating the stark duality between freedom and the constraints of illness - a kind of double-edged freedom versus the finite and impermanent state of "being healthy." With a sharp and intelligent perspective, Frida uses her visual narrative to embrace the experience of being alive and the vulnerability of the human body. The book offers a glimpse into the sick yet capable body, standing at the crossroads of being ill, young, and both simultaneously."
