Fotografische Selbsterkundungen assembles early photographic works produced by Linda Reif between the ages of 13 and 19 and re-edited in 2023 for this publication. Fotografische selbsterkundungen

The book brings together her first attempts with the camera, reframed retrospectively as a coherent body of work.

Rather than presenting polished artistic production, the publication foregrounds experimentation, hesitation and self-observation. The images reflect an exploratory engagement with identity, intimacy and perception, documenting the formative phase of a photographic practice.

By revisiting and reorganising these early works, the publication situates adolescence not only as a biographical stage but as a methodological condition — a period in which photography operates as a tool for self-discovery and visual testing. Edition: 250 copies
