After her father's death, Dalia Johananoff Kenneth discovered tens of thousands of photographs he had taken and developed in his darkroom in the 1950s and 1960s. Hidden away for decades, the prints, curled at the edges, unordered and fragile, revealed an unexpected dimension of his life and creative spirit. This discovery became the foundation for her acclaimed book Mistaken Memories. A Love Letter To My Father (2023), winner of the German Photo Book Award. With Mirror Mirror. Mistaken Memories Project #2, Johananoff Kenneth continues this exploration by focusing on her father's self-portraits, images we would now call 'selfies.' Through these photographs, his self-directed gaze encounters her contemporary perspective as daughter, artist and curator. The result is a deeply personal collaboration across time, bridging intimacy, memory, and artistic vision.
