Sarah Hobbs's carefully staged photographs explore phobias and obsessive compulsive behavior. What sets Hobbs apart from other photographers working in a similar vein is that she both constructs an illusion and at the same time exposes its materiality to the viewer. Her large-scale works concerned with "problem" behavior, the small photographs feel more like the result of psychoanalysis: controlled, neatly stacked, perfectly piled and orderly. Her Westobou contributions will include an exhibition of her photography and the construction on a site-specific instillation.
