Still Life: Photographs & Love Stories

Published by Mexican Summer

For decades, photographer Kate Sterlin has made an artistic practice of examining the boundaries between individual, family, and community. In her first book, Still Life: Photographs & Love Stories, she delivers a meditation on love and its ability to weather the brutal specificities of life, death, family and race in America. Pairing intimate photographs with poetic, lyrical writings, Still Life is a hypnagogic narrative that unfolds in a series of overlapping episodes and identities, a testament to one artist's commitment to creation and a dreamlike blend of the personal and the universal.

Kate Sterlin is a photographer and writer whose work has been featured in The New York Times, The Atlantic, and Vogue. Stemming from formative experiences mentoring under acclaimed documentarian Mary Ellen Mark alongside her striking early snapshots of her father, she has developed dual bodies of work in street photography and portraiture that wend together to capture otherwise hidden stories. She has been exhibited in group and solo shows, and her film Sometimes has been shown at film festivals internationally. After a long period of working and living in New York City, she is currently based in Los Angeles, CA.
