Genesis Báez: Blue Sun
Edited by Anika Sabin, Sophie Mörner. Text by Hilda Lloréns, Elle Pérez. Translated by Beatriz Llenín Figueroa.
Spanning a decade of photographic work, Blue Sun offers a glimmering examination of matriarchal kinship and diaspora
The first monograph on the work of Genesis Baéz (born 1990), Blue Sun creates a "matriarchal sensorium" of tessellating social and environmental conditions shaped by colonization in Puerto Rico and subsequent mass migration to the US, of which Báez is a descendant.
PRAISE AND REVIEWS
Collector Daily
Loring Knoblauch
With this solid first monograph, Báez has confidently set down an initial marker, making an understated but effective argument for her inclusion in the larger diasporic dialogue taking place right now. Seen as body of work, Blue Sun feels thoughtfully considered, emotionally poised, and compositionally meticulous, the work of an emerging photographer who has begun to trust her own voice.

In 'Blue Sun,' the new monograph by Genesis Báez, movement and stillness dance together, creating a visual cadence that feels both fleeting and eternal.
