Produced in close cooperation with the artist, who provides a foreword, the book consists of a groundbreaking critical text by Colin Rhodes, accompanied by more than seventy superb quality reproductions of works by internationally acclaimed photographer Roger Ballen from the past two decades. Rhodes uses the metaphor of the theatre to explore in depth the profoundly psychological nature of Ballen's art. He goes to the heart of the artist's preoccupation with unveiling images from deeper, more primal states of consciousness, which brings him closer to the thought and practices of R. D. Laing, C. G. Jung, Samuel Beckett and Antonin Artaud than to any sources in the history of photography. As Rhodes says, "Ballen's processes do not much reflect received ideas of what photographers do. As an artist he is centrally engaged in a practice that flows primarily from the inside out."
