Well-known for her provocative large-scale photographs paired with text, Artist-in-Residence at the Wexner Center for the Arts, Lorna Simpson, moves in her exhibition Interior/Exterior; Full/Empty into the realm of film stills in which she gives human voice to previously mute written texts. In this book which documents the exhibit, black and white photographs of people in intimate conversation weave a narrative of desire and deception, seducing the viewer into becoming a willing voyeur.
