Photographs themselves compound this, by locking a moment in time, in a way that no other phenomena can achieve, at least not with such veracity and vivacity. Photography destabilises the natural order of things, allowing us to hold the present in our hand as a print, even as the present eludes us&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The images in this book are not chronological; instead, they are grouped into relationships, positioning the body of work as a whole and in retrospect. This approach to sequencing the images is commensurate with the influence of lives entwined.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rimbooks.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/F4_pg11_800px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1127\" title=\"F4 sample page 11\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rimbooks.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/F4_pg11_800px-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"F4 sample page 11\" width=\"313\" height=\"235\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>RIM BOOKS<br \/>\nNovember 2014<br \/>\n96p, 260 x 195mm<\/p>\n<p>Softcover<br \/>\nISBN 978-0-473-30096-8<br \/>\nRRP NZ $25 incl.GST<\/p>\n<p class=\"product woocommerce add_to_cart_inline \" style=\"NONE\"><a href=\"\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1121?add-to-cart=2164\" aria-describedby=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_2164\" data-quantity=\"1\" class=\"button product_type_simple add_to_cart_button ajax_add_to_cart\" data-product_id=\"2164\" data-product_sku=\"978-0-473-30096-8\" aria-label=\"Add to cart: &ldquo;F4: IN THE INTERVAL&rdquo;\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-success_message=\"&ldquo;F4: IN THE INTERVAL&rdquo; has been added to your cart\" role=\"button\">Add to cart<\/a>\t<span id=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_2164\" class=\"screen-reader-text\">\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"\"><\/div>\n<p>Limited edition hardcover<br \/>\nISBN 978-0-473-29968-2<br \/>\nRRP NZ $70 incl.GST<\/p>\n<p>For all orders and requests <a href=\"mailto:info@rimbooks.com\">info@rimbooks.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2006, after fifteen years of collaborative art practice, Susan Jowsey and Marcus Williams decided to invite their two children, Jesse and Mercy to join their art project, creating the art collective, F4.
