Kaat Pype
Kaat Pype is a conceptual photographer, based in Ghent, Belgium.
She explores boundaries within the genre of portrait photography. Her surrealistic references evoke nevertheless a strange familiar feeling.
Moment II
I want to tell a story about vulnerability, a tipping point, desire, ignorance, innocence. The girl in the picture is my daughter, she looks straight into the lens, she trusts me, I am her mother. These nets are cut out of an old swimsuit that belonged to my grandmother. They're quickly glued to her body with transparent tape, as if it will fall off again soon.
