About the Book
Ima is a magazine presentation of the archives of Alfonso Muñoz’s work in The Journey of Imagination, a portfolio of doll photography. Much of it was only seen in galleries or museums.
Miniature Items collected over 30 years come together to create an alternative universe where familiar faces are staring in a movie that never was. It is a journal of personal items, travels, meditations and biting societal examinations. The series began in 2003 after documenting doll decor set-ups for a birthday party and a steady exploration ensued until 2009.
This first issue covers explorations done with Marilyn Monroe, Liz Taylor, Twiggy and other familiar faces that didn't make the final cut. A chance to peek at paper prints of rejects worth getting viewed. The images are devoid of any text.
An art photography magazine for both doll and photography lovers.
There are no ads, just prints.
