Among the Gravestones, Hannah

Jessika Kohl photographs women in the spaces where beauty and unease meet without resolving the tension. Hannah in the Graveyard is exactly that—a figure moving through monuments to absence, the light wrong in the right way, the composition still enough to feel like it’s holding its breath. Kohl has an eye for the moment just before or just after: not the dramatic gesture but the pause around it. Gravestones as furniture. Death as backdrop. Hannah as something alive and unhurried in the middle of all that stillness.
