Vertigo

Shannon Bool Canadian

Not on view

This photogram—made without a camera by placing a collage of transparencies on a photosensitive sheet of paper and exposing it to light—is part of a series portraying psychoanalysts and their patients. Here, a patient on a Freudian couch is seen from above; the figure, sheathed in patterns of Maori origin, appears to come apart at the seams under the analyst’s scrutiny.
