”The woman does not speak, she is spoken of. The woman knows herself through what is said of her. The woman only exists in relation to being desired by her audience. The woman does not dream of anything, but the perception her audience has of her.”
Rose by Sofia Okkonen is a photographic foreplay and profile of a woman. It presents a woman isolated in a studio, posing for a camera. The model is like an amateur actor, who gets the script just as she arrives in front of the casting directors.
Sofia Okkonen (b.1987) is a fine art photographer based in Helsinki, Finland.
