Sibylle Fendt Before the time comes English Edition

In her book Before the time comes, Sibylle Fendt focuses on people who spend the last phase of their lives at home with family and friends. The intimate photographs show how familiar surroundings can be an important anchor during the time of farewell, providing security and support despite the pain. Through her photographs, supplemented by quotes from the people portrayed, she makes it clear that this time also has a special value. Sibylle Fendt finds a touching and appreciative visual language for the difficult subject of dying.

Sibylle Fendt (b. 1974) lives in Berlin and participated in the World Press Photo Masterclass. Additionally, she is a member of the renowned agency Ostkreuz. Her work is mostly socio-critical and has received numerous awards, including the Wüstenrot Foundation’s Documentary Photography Award.
