“Beginning with the light of dawn and ending as day shifts to night, Bénédicte Lassalle explores the essence of her grandmother through the images of her home and possessions. Dawn is bright, crisp, and quiet, the portraits – of faded wallpaper, a well-worn apron, table set for one, a cracked kitchen sink – begin to define the existence of a person living alone; late in life when things are not new, repaired, or replaced. Lassalle’s intimate portraits embody the dignity of passage.”
