Deborah Paauwe: Beautiful Games

by Wendy Walker, Deborah Paauwe

Deborah Paauwe's sometimes controversial photographs of young women are showcased in this volume, the next in this series devoted to contemporary Australian artists. An introductory discussion of "female identity" and "burgeoning sexual awareness" paves the way for the lush, color-saturated photographs that chronicle the sensual journey from girlhood to adulthood. None of the asymmetrically framed prints have been digitally manipulated or cropped, leaving the viewer with an intense sense of the entangled innocence and eroticism of the anonymous subjects.
