Her name: Vera van Dam. She has just published a book entitled Dahlia with Setanta Books.
We asked her for a text to illustrate her images. We received this:
“Dahlia is a flower. Maybe a car. Definitely a mother. In this project I found a way to reclaim what has been hijacked by the masculine kingdom. Women and cars. Subjects of advertisement, objects of home. By focusing on both their levels of intimacy and anonymity, I realized cars are as personal and universal as the female body. Skin and metal – covering frames to protect our insides from the outside.” – Vera van Dam
