Different & the Same by Melanie Reim

Description

For as long as she has been an artist and carried a sketchbook, Melanie Reim has felt compelled to draw women everywhere she has travelled. Different & the Same showcases her extraordinary visual reportage spanning decades and continents further enhanced by her own written observations. The collection includes more than 120 dynamic scenes drawn on location near and far, from sunbathers in her native Long Island to flamenco dancers in Spain to garment factory workers in Hong Kong. A visually stunning compilation of on-the-spot drawings, Different & the Same celebrates women who experience joy, triumph, rituals, conversation and each other.
