Reviews

"The surrealist work of Dutch photographer Viviane Sassen implores viewers to wake up as if from a deep sleep — it is disorienting, and begs for a second look. Hot Mirror is a gasping masterwork that must be glimpsed from a peripheral standpoint as it is almost too bright to bear." -Musée Magazine
