And Time Folds accom­pa­nies a retro­spec­ti­ve exhi­bi­ti­on of the Bri­tish pho­to­gra­pher Vanes­sa Win­ship at the Bar­bi­can Art Gal­le­ry, Lon­don. At once inti­ma­te and epic, Winship’s black-and-white pho­to­graphs explo­re noti­ons of bor­ders, land, memo­ry, desi­re and histo­ry. This volu­me com­pri­ses pho­to­graphs from seven seri­es, inclu­ding pro­jects made during a deca­de living in the regi­on of the Bal­kans, Tur­key and the Cau­ca­sus; as well as work made in Geor­gia, Ame­ri­ca and the U.K. Win­ship has long been con­cer­ned with the elu­si­ve natu­re of tran­si­en­ce in our land­s­cape and socie­ty, and her oeu­vre moves sure-foo­ted­ly bet­ween gen­res – repor­ta­ge, docu­men­ta­ry, por­trai­tu­re and land­s­cape. Along­side her lumin­ous pho­to­graphs, And Time Folds brings tog­e­ther per­so­nal archi­val mate­ri­al that reve­als Winship’s thought pro­cess, working methods, and the impor­t­ance of the writ­ten word, as well as an exten­si­ve essay by the renow­ned pho­to­gra­phy his­to­ri­an David Chand­ler, prof­fe­ring a mul­ti-face­ted view of her work and artis­tic trajectory.

Vanes­sa Win­ship (b. 1960 in Lin­colnshire, United King­dom) is a pho­to­gra­pher, whos pro­jects have recei­ved nume­rous awards inclu­ding the World Press Pho­to, Lei­ca Oskar Bar­nack Award, Sony World Pho­to­gra­phy Awards, Tay­lor Wes­sing Pho­to­gra­phic Por­trait Pri­ze, and the Fon­da­ti­on Hen­ri Car­tier-Bres­son pri­ze. And Time Folds is her fourth book fol­lowing she dan­ces on Jack­son (MACK, 2013), Schwar­zes Meer (2007) and Sweet Not­hings (2008).
