The Overcoat is a book work that features 17 new photographic works presented alongside the full text of a translation of Russian author Nicolai Gogol’s darkly comic acclaimed novella The Overcoat (1842). The photographs aim to become a reflection on history, artistic re-purposing and the status of desire in relation to commodities & cultural artefacts.
