Viviane Sassen, Dazed, 2022
“Viviane Sassen's impact on the photography and fashion scene is big and we are very proud to show such a comprehensive exhibition with her,” says Mohamed Mire, exhibition producer at Fotografiska Stockholm.
In this exhibition, Sassen brings together fine art with fashion photography, creating a dialogue between two sides of her artistry that may seem separate - but are very much connected. Her photographic style, with its saturated colours, graphic contrasts and unique view of the human body, has become internationally recognized.
Viviane Sassen, who now lives in Amsterdam, spent the first years of her life in Kenya, where she still draws much of her inspiration. The exhibition opens with some of her best-known works, mostly created on the African continent between 2004 and 2014. The images are often praised for their introspective and intimate nature while being visually bold.
