Mirror images

Since her death in 2013, Cuchi White’s archives have been saved and collected for the cataloguing and inventory of her body of work. By enhancing the conditions of research and documentation, we are hoping to reconstruct the photographer’s path, presenting her pictures mirrored by history and the arts, and allowing the public access to this heritage of global interest.
