'I Also Fight Windmills' is a literary photobook by the Polish-British artist Ania Ready. It responds to literary texts by a modernist, trilingual author of Polish origin, Sophie Gaudier-Brzeska (1872–1925). By combining Ready’s photography and Gaudier-Brzeska’s writing, this book explores the themes of displacement, creativity, loneliness, and social exclusion. Through re-enactment and performative photography, it reintroduces an undeservedly forgotten and stigmatized writer.
Photographs are presented on larger, thicker pages whereas literary texts are gathered separately on smaller, yellow pages to resemble Gaudier-Brzeska’s archive.
The photobook has been published as a limited, signed and numbered edition of 300 copies. Each copy contains a manually cut out page which resembles the first draft of Sophie Gaudier-Brzeska’s novel.
