Dayanita Singh: Museum of Chance by Aveek Sen (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Dayanita Singh by Aveek Sen A book about how life unfolds, and asks to be recorded and edited, along and off the axis of time. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Dayanita Singhs Museum of Chance is a book about how life unfolds, and asks to be recorded and edited, along and off the axis of time. The inscrutably woven photographic sequence of Singhs Go Away Closer has now grown into a labyrinth of connections and correspondences. The thread through this novel-like web of happenings is that elusive entity called Chance. It is Chance that seems to disperse as well as gather fragments or clusters of experience, creating a form of simultaneity that is realized in the idea and matter of the book, with its interlaced or parallel timelines and patterns of recurrence and return. The eighty-eight quadratone images in the book will also appear on the front and back covers in random pairs, transforming each copy of the book into a distinct piece of work by the author. Author Biography Dayanita Singh was born in 1961 in New Delhi, India, where she continues to live and work.
