In addition to her publications Of Lions and Lambs (2019) and 48 Hours Blackpool (2018) with Kehrer Verlag her photographs have appeared in Nachtleben Berlin 1974 – bis heute (Metrolit Verlag, 2013), Berlin Now (teNeues Verlag, 2009) and have been widely covered by television, radio and print media.

"I am attracted to the poetic and the bizarre, the bold and the vulnerable. I work intuitively with little interest for strict documentation or sensation but with high regard for authenticity, spontaneity and the transitional moment; that elusive split of a second between what has passed, what is to come and the traces it leaves behind. The drama and ambiguity of human expression and gesture in that transitional moment is what fascinates me the most." More information: www.benitasuchodrev.com @benitasuchodrev www.kehrerverlag.com |
