With this volume, Maia Flore (born 1988), winner of the 2015 HSBC Prize for Photography, receives her first monograph. Flore stages herself in improbable poetical or metaphorical situations—dangling above the sea, hanging from a cloud above Parisian rooftops—seeking the sublime in her theatrical self-portraits.
