HELLO My Name Is
Obsessed with flea-markets, car boot sales and the the leftovers of lives lived in recent urban history that they hold, Nadia Lee Cohen collected the name badges of 33 unknown individuals. She created personas for these name badges, visualised their imagined lives through an arrangement of objects and ultimately transformed herself into them.
The photographic portraits and resulting book are the product of many hours spent in wardrobe, make up and prosthetics – and the endless creativity of one of the greatest contemporary artists!
Nadia Lee Cohen’s “HELLO My Name Is” sold out at the publisher before it even reached us!
