Cole, often hailed as an inventor, employs a raw, hands-on photographic approach that aligns with her belief in the virtually limitless possibilities of photography. Since the early 1980s, she has dedicated herself to exploring the camera itself. Deviating from automatic cameras and techniques, Cole is passionate about preserving the history of photography. Through her artistic endeavors, she delves into the exploration of time, place, and identity. In numerous series, Cole poses thought-provoking questions such as how to portray timelessness and capture the essence of weightlessness in a photograph. Her ethereal photography exudes a quintessential painterly quality, with a prominent theme of transforming figures. Over the past three decades, while still employing traditional photographic methods, Cole's artistic approach has gradually shifted closer to that of a painter. Her work prominently features powerful narratives, some driven by external motifs and others relying solely on intense figure transformations to convey the story. Cole's background in fashion and fashion editorial naturally informs her creative process, allowing her to infuse her experiences into crafting distinct atmospheres through costumes and backdrops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 275 x 340 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783961714568\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barbara Cole","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44249548685562,"sku":"9783961714568","price":35.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1684508088193_book.jpg?v=1684840609","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/barbara-cole-between-worlds-9783961714568","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
