Interlude
Alyssa Minahan
“This is a love letter, a conversation across space and time, a meditation, and a poem of mourning. It is my way of processing the loss of one of the most influential and enduring relationships of my life. It is the culmination of a promise that I made to my Dad during our final months together. It is the interlude between an idea and its existence in the world.” _ Alyssa Minahan
Alyssa Minahan has long explored the materiality and temporality of photography, working with themes of vanished traces and memory. Her book “Interlude,” meaning a passage of music between acts, serves as a tribute to her father, Mark Jeff. Minahan prints her father’s film and weaves it together with her own images, creating a dialogue between their perspectives. For the artist, this book is a promise: to affirm presence through photography and to remember the time shared with a loved one. Limited to 100 hand-bound copies, each book includes a unique darkroom print made by the artist from her father’s film.
