Eric James Guillemain‘s book, Backstage Dreams: The Secret Door to Sets, has just been released by Damiani Books.
This book is the photographer’s first monograph, bringing together 200 works spanning 15 years of his career.
It documents the intimate and privileged moments of actors in their most vulnerable instants: reserved and introspective before each performance—reflecting, contemplating, caught off guard. Guillemain’s work is a journey of exploration, rich in fascinating contrasts between empty theatrical sets and a rare series of portraits evoking this final stage, this last breath, from backstage to the stage, or from the dressing room to the set.
