This week, APAD’s guest is Thessaloniki, Greece based photographer Fanis Rami with his work Personal Narratives.
These photos are part of an ongoing project of mine. What they have in common is the reference to my everyday life, to my relationship with the city I live in. In fact, they are a journal of the stimulus I receive from the environment around me. My photos seem to have an agoraphobic sense; this is only happening because of my will to find nostalgia in the modern world. I avoid to shoot people only because I strongly believe in the narrative nature of the objects.
This week, APAD’s guest is Montréal based photographer Nicolas Dufour-Laperrière with his work Nord Atlantique.
Nord Atlantique takes a look at this universe, at the daily life on board and at this trade so deeply rooted in our collective imagination and traditions. The sailors, their frugal privacy, their dignity, the places they occupy, the machine, the sky, the immensity and the mightiness of the Atlantic Ocean. Its strength, its body, its life.
This week, APAD’s guest is Montréal, QC based photographer Nicolas Dufour-Laperrière with his work Nord Atlantique.
Antwerp – Montreal. 5500 kilometers and 28 days of ocean and rivers. A 220 meters bulk carrier with on board twenty-one crew members and 45,000 tons of steel and fertilizer. An historic maritime route, commercial bridge between the Old and the New World for four centuries and now spinal chord of our globalised economy. Sailors are now south-asians, but the gestures stay the sames and perpetuate themselves.
