I want to put the inner state, the memories and sound of my mind on paper.

Self-biographical life mixing with fictional – as always.

The taste that remains after. Sound. The memory of body, touch on a skin.

AHNUNGEN – AAVISTUKSIA
– a forethought of an incidence.
– a strong intuition.
– an atmosphere, state of mind, where any turning point of an event could be possible.
– a flashback of a childhood memory.

FEATURED ARTICLES:
I, Tokyo

"Rather than focusing on the impressively tall buildings and the eternal swarm of people [in Tokyo], I began searching for the narrow paths and the individual human presence in the city that felt both attractive and repulsive at the same time."

Between Flesh and Film

Less a photobook than an academic thesis, this book explores the highly charged creative period experienced by Francesca Woodman while she lived in Italy.

Dark Knees

Our favorite photobook of 2013. Don't miss it.

In the Car with R

Part road-trip, part hilarious narrative diary, this unique photobook presents two distinct points-of-view as the Polish photographer, Rafal Milach, and his local guide, Huldar Breidfjörd, continually start and stop on a manic 1450 km 10-day drive around Iceland.
