Necks live in the cloud mouth, in the shadow of the face. In this book, Thomas Wågström has photographed more than 50 necks of different ages and characters with great tenderness. Karl Ove Knausgård has written a captivating essay, Ansiktets baksida, about our bodies’ perhaps most vulnerable, but also most immutable part. “A neck exists in time, belongs to time, but is not formed by it. Had they been able to take these pictures 10,000 years ago, they would have been the same.” Also available in a Swedish edition, Nackar (ISBN 978-91-7126-311-7).
