Presenting previously unseen self-portraits from the 1990s, the Dutch photographer’s revelatory new book lends insight into her inner workings as a young artist working against the male gaze
AM: You’ve previously said that you don’t see a project finished until it’s in a book? VS: Yes. I feel it’s like cleaning up my closet. Once the book is out in the world, I feel relieved. It will go its own way, as it’s out of my hands. Books are so democratic. I started collecting photo books as a student, because one of my teachers encouraged us to do so. As a student, you can’t afford an expensive print, but you can buy a book.
AM: How do you feel about looking back at early work? What I love about the book is that it’s so ‘Sassen’ … And that’s a compliment!� VS: Oh, thank you! I think some of it feels immature, but I can appreciate it for what it is. I look back on these images and have a kind of empathy for the person I see. But yes, I think it’s fun to see those early attempts, also because they do relate to the work I made afterwards. There’s a stream of ‘unconsciousness’ that connects the then and now.
