DOUBLE Carol Newhouse & Carmen Winant
The book Double accompanies the exhibition by Carol Newhouse and Carmen Winant at this year’s Les Rencontres d'Arles. Through her exploration of radical reinvention—especially within 1970s lesbian separatist communities—Carmen Winant connected with Carol Newhouse, co-founder of WomanShare.
Over the course of a year, they engaged in a photographic dialogue: one shot a roll of film, sent it across the country, and the other re-exposed it using double exposure.
Double invites us to consider how we reinvent ourselves and our histories through shared self-representation and interconnection. Taking a fulcrum in Newhouse’s archive, their work gives form to intergenerational relationships and feminist legacies, bringing past experimental photographic practices into the present.
