Overview

In this evocative book of color photographs RJ Muna has investigated what he calls "the concept of the glimpse." In THE APPARTIONS "Muna gives us pictures that run or dance counter to the particular strengths of the camera. Time does not freeze in sculptural perfection. There are no poses, no attempts to emphasize female beauty or choreography, no insistence that the pictures be viewed in the context of a storyline or an enforced metaphor; the viewer is left to decide what's up (and, for that matter, what's down)…Whatever one decides, the pictures are alluring, and elusive. They are the rare sort that can be seen again and again, each time with the feeling that now, just now, you have the answer" Owen Edwards, from the introduction. Large format book.
