    Richard Wade | Human Chassis

    Human Chassis is a Photographic study of the special isolation that links a driver to their vehicle, effecting a unique and introverted process of thought that could only occur in this private sanctuary.“

    I originally wanted to make work on the subject after becoming bored of driving the same routes over and over and over again. I would find myself at a destination with little memory of the journey. I found that really intriguing (as well as terrifying from a road safety standpoint). There is something uniquely private and lonely about being in a car, I really wanted to photograph it. (mehr …)

  • Amaury da Cunha | Après tout

    Amaury da Cunha | Après tout

    Après tout (After All) represents a turning point in the work of Amaury da Cunha.
    His previous series, Saccades (Jolts), was somewhat luminous, infused with a sense of wonder facing the world. Après tout darkens in tone, as wonder gives way to bewilderment. Invading shadows are the backdrop for a photographer depicting himself as blinded. Death and sex are less allusive. A dog bares its fangs, while a bird of prey claws a branch. Yet shafts of light or a glimpsed road suggest that the end is not as impending as we may think. (mehr …)

  • Lars Tunbjörk | Vinter

    Lars Tunbjörk | Vinter

    Snowbound streets, buildings and abandoned cars, a dirty snowman standing forlorn in a garden.
    But interiors too, and portraits of people in their homes, at work, in cafés and at parties.

    For his series Vinter (Winter), Lars Tunbjörk travelled through Sweden from 2004 to 2007 capturing the melancholy winter atmosphere of Northern Europe and recording the mental state that closes in on the people of Scandinavia in the dark months of the year. For Tunbjörk himself, the project was originally primarily a creative way to cope with his own depressive mood, which regularly beset him in the winter months. (mehr …)
