Dafy Hagai - Sunset
Melbourne-based Perimeter Editions released this paperback in 2015. Photographer Dafy Hagai made a name for her playful, sexually curious images of young women amidst a uniquely Middle Eastern geographic, cultural, and architectural paradigm. Her first book, Israeli Girls (Art Paper Editions, 2014) engendered a new perspective on the queer gaze, bouncing between visual cadences skirting fashion and editorial photography and a refreshingly wide-eyed sense of candidness. This publication, Sunset, prefaces a more experimental line of approach from the Tel Aviv-based artist. Shot in and around Israeli beach resort towns, Sunset sidles architecture, abstraction, and fragmented figurative gestures amongst an idyllic and faux-idyllic tableau of landscapes and beach scenes—the tension between reality and artifice ever-present.
