Publisher Note
In a series of richly-imagined portraits, the artist duo Sarah Cooper and Nina Gorfer explore the idea of Utopia in the age of a new diaspora, where young women whose lives have been influenced by forced migration, are photographed like goddesses inside lustrous sets. This book lets us delve into a colourful utopian theater, celebrating female power, and inviting us to partake in the emotional dance of hardship, hope and transformation.
Cooper & Gorfer:
“What do you hold close? Where is your secret place of belonging? If you had to leave everything behind and begin again – who would you be? Humanitarian tragedies keep unfolding, creating immense human suffering. But as the world around us is unravelling, have we stopped dreaming of another? Starring young women whose lives have been affected by forced migration, this series is about the loss of utopia and our ability to dream again. “
