Liv Liberg was 10 years old when she started photographing her four years younger sister Britt. It was a game between two sisters in which fashion, dressing up and photography were in line with each other and in which Liberg was in charge. What started as child play developed into a serious passion and obsession. The archive of images show a girl developing into a young woman, being increasingly aware of herself and the outside world. Liberg directs her sister in different settings, over a timeframe of fifteen years, mostly wearing their mother’s clothes. The work emphasizes the almost obsessive attitude that resulted in an abundance of photos.

Liv Liberg (1992, NL) is a Dutch photographer whose work explores the idea of being a woman, through clothes and character play, which she developed growing up in the Dutch countryside. Through a combination of staged posing, dressing-up and portraiture, Liv looks for moments of both complex emotion and playfulness in her subjects.
