The encounter dates back to the winter of 1994, and marked the photographer's career until the sculptor's death in 2006. When he entered her home-studio in the heart of Brooklyn for the first time, he discovered a place inhabited by the presence of this unpredictable, mischievous woman, with whom he eventually established a precious relationship of trust. With infinite discretion, he enters the sculptor's lair, revealing a home that becomes a self-portrait.
