Viviane Sassen began making photo books by herself in the 1990s while she was in art school, and later in the 2000s, began collaborating with publishers and designers. To date, she has worked on 25 photo books in total. She will talk about how she lays-out the photographs on a photo book, tells her stories, and adds the essence of texts written by writers, poets, and herself. She will also touch a topic such as the difference of creation between “exhibition" and "photo book."
