Author: Lina Scheynius, Saskia Vogel (trans.)
In 'Diary of an Ending', internationally renowned photographer Lina Scheynius expands her artistic vision to prose, offering an unflinching and intimate exploration of heartbreak and self-recovery. Blurring the boundaries between diary and essay, this book explores the break-up of a relationship, combining extracts from Scheynius’s diary – written in Swedish and translated by Saskia Vogel – with reflective essays written in English five years on.The book explores ideas about art and photography, sex and passion, the act of diary-making, destructive relationships, motherhood and home. Interspersed with black-and-white photographs, and written with the same unashamed and unfiltered honesty that defines Scheynius’s photography, 'Diary of an Ending' is an intimate hybrid of memoir and autofiction, a meditation on the passage of time and the transformative power of creativity.
