Photobooks and artist publications by Katrin Koenning — Australian-German photographer working with slow, relational image-making, published through independent imprints including Chose Commune.

Katrin Koenning Photography & Photobooks

Katrin Koenning works at the intersection of photography and relational practice. Born in Dortmund, Germany, and based in Naarm, Australia, her image-making is slow, accumulative, and attentive to the spaces between people, places, and time. A Katrin Koenning photobook is not a document of events but a sustained encounter — one that repays repeated handling.

Her publications treat the book as an extension of the photographic act itself. Images are arranged as fragments and slippages rather than linear sequences, opening narrative spaces that resist resolution. between the skin and sea — Katrin Koenning exemplifies this approach: a work in which image and form are inseparable. It is published by Chose Commune, an independent imprint whose editorial rigour aligns closely with Koenning's practice.

Her titles are held at Lokator100 for readers and collectors whose interest in the photobook runs deeper than the image alone — those drawn to work that holds its attention across time. They sit within our broader Photobooks catalogue, among publications selected for sustained engagement rather than surface appeal.
