This luxury limited edition book is entirely handcrafted from the binding to the letterpress and hand-pulled photogravure.
This is the story of a woman who invents her freedom by creating an imaginary architecture made of light, scraps of memory, hopes, and dreams – a permeable architecture where nothing is confined.
It is dedicated to Juana La Loca, the supposed “mad” queen of Spain in the 16th century who for political motives was imprisoned for 46 years by her father, husband, and son in an architecture of darkness and stone. – Josephine Sacabo

Now, let me tell you about the Josephine Sacabo known to those of us photo-people who hang out in New Orleans a lot. She is a warm and gracious hostess. Her studio is a place for art thinking and practice. Her kitchen table is a place for profound and often irreverent conversations. And her generosity toward and support of the arts in New Orleans knows no bounds.

Q: WHAT IN YOUR EYES MAKES A GREAT PHOTOGRAPH? A GREAT WORK OF ART?
A: In my eyes a great work of art has to come from an authentic place in the artist; an intense need to express whatever it is and then the discipline and hard work of giving it its most perfect form.
Read the interview: Rfotofolio, January 15, 2013
“So many of these photographers, including Josephine, originally came from somewhere else. And I think there’s something about New Orleans, as a city of profound mystery, that attracts its own – attracts people that are attuned to the mysteries of the city, that are really the mysteries of the world and the universe … So I think that all of them in a way are doing their version of what it is about this city and this region that inspires them to create.”
Listen to the interview: Susan Larson, The Reading Life (WWNO), December 24, 2013
For photographer Josephine Sacabo, the visions conjured by her favorite writers inspire photographs that resemble fragments of a fantastical parallel universe. Her new series was inspired by Brazilian author Clarice Lispector, who once asked: “And as for music, after it’s played, where does it go?” Sacabo’s images provide no literal answers but surround us with visionary echoes – like elusive dreams that create their own realities.
