Photography

Arc is the debut book by Melbourne artist Zoë Croggon and the winner of the 2015 winner of the Asia-Pacific Photobook Prize, sponsored by Grenadier Press, Singapore, and published by Perimeter Editions and Asia-Pacific Photobook Archive, Melbourne. Croggon's practice revolves around collage in its most economical and decisive form. Drawing on found images mining the histories of modernist and minimalist architecture, dance, performance and sporting endeavour, Croggon orchestrates highly aesthetic and formally charged arrangements via the simplest of cuts and gestures, pointing towards the limitations and potentials of the body and the built form. Zoë Croggon is represented by Daine Singer, Melbourne.
