Sophy Rickett's subjects are primarily photographed at night, often located in peripheral and mundane environments. In both color and black and white, her work uses landscape to explore narrative and formal possibilities while it examines and ponders on the potential of photography to conceal as much as it reveals. Can there be a photograph in which nothing happens but photography, some film's exposure to some light that has been reflected off some object and concentrated through a lens? Sophy Rickett's photographs seem less concerned to compress any structurally extraneous narrative content to a bare minimum. --Barry Schwabsky, Artforum Essays by David Chandler, Mark Durden, and Urs Stahel.
