Episode 2: Josephine Sacabo
Josephine Sacabo’s early work followed the photojournalistic tradition of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Frank, but her artistic development was soon deepened by an altogether different medium-poetry. Citing Rainer Maria Rilke, Charles Baudelaire, Stéphane Mallarmé, and Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz as influences, Sacabo’s work has taken a dreamlike, mystical turn, further enhanced by her own customized printing process.
