Printed in spreads allowing the reader to immerse themselves in the gaze of the photographer, the photographs become landscape in itself. Far from being descriptive, they tear the surface of what we believe the places ought to be, their own representation, delving into the space for re-imagining.The tension that arises is the dialectic between past and present, proximity and distance, real and unreal, a constant sway, like a murmur, latent, under the surface that is inherently bittersweet.
