Silver gelatin print
Signed by the artist
Unframed
Year: 2021

Untitled (Backbend with Ribbon) is an original silver gelatin print by photographer Maureen Muse, signed on the verso. This image, which also appears in the artists’ book Guiones, captures a suspended moment of physical tension and vulnerability. The figurebent backward in an arched, almost sculptural posture evokes a choreography of restraint and release, heightened by the subtle presence of a ribbon encircling the neck.

Printed by hand in the darkroom, the photograph holds the tactile depth and tonal richness characteristic of gelatin silver materials. The clean whites, deep shadows, and soft mid tones emphasize the intimate hesitation of the pose, offering a quiet yet charged study of gesture, body, and breath.

An individual artwork rather than a reproduction, this print stands as a rare opportunity to collect Muse’s analog work in its standalone form precise, intimate, and materially rooted.

Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.

We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.

To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.

We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
