Atlas of Echoes: Inside the Dreamlike Photography of Sarah van Rij

Atlas of Echoes, published by Note Note Éditions is the first monograph by Sarah van Rij. Van Rij, self-taught photographer living and working between Amsterdam and Paris, began photographing in 2018, initially drawn to the immediacy of the street. She then expanded her practice to landscapes, still life, portraiture, and, more recently, collage, developing a visual language always moving with delicacy between the real and the dreamlike. The book is a selection of works created over the past seven years: street photographs, still life, self-portraits, and her handmade collages, composed from her own images. Over the last year and a half, collage has become an essential extension of her practice, a process of layering and reassembling images captured in different places around the world that allows new visual narratives to emerge.
