Jacqueline Hassink on Domains of Influence

Watch a short interview with Dutch photographer Jacqueline Hassink speaking about her book "Domains of Influence: Arab Women Business Leaders in a New Economy," part of the Aperture Curated Collection. In this clip, Hassink explains the origin of the project, how she collaborated with the The Arab International Womens Forum to reach out to these thirty-six powerful Arab women from eighteen Arab countries and created a unique portrait of them, capturing both the boardroom tables and dining room tables and not their faces. Hassink gives us both an alienated and incredibly intimate view of how her subjects conceive of and project their identities and positions. In turn, as Hassink writes, This kind of portraiture reveals a great deal about the business women and how people create their work and life environments to reflect their cultures and also their personalities. Hassink also gives insight into the design of the book created by Irma Boom. She finally explains the different layers of her artistic projects from the aesthetic to the social level. It is exactly this type of powerful, idiosyncratic approach that has earned her a wide range of admirers. I have noticed over the years that my work is not only appreciated in the art world but also in other areas of society, notes Hassink. Architectural, sociological and economic readings have all been welcome contributions to the way I think about the work.
