Spanning almost three decades, Moonshine is a portrait of the American Appalachian folk, a mythologised region populated by 'moonshiners'. Van Manen's images are defined by a fierce intimacy with her subject, as the viewer teeters on the edge of the frame, perpetually trespassing on private moments: rollicking children practicing handstands on the couch; a kneeling daughter combing the hair of her grandmother.
