Searching for Solace / Escaping Something
In this meditative project, I have endeavoured to photograph intangible elements of my own psyche, portraying my emotional states through the perspective of the landscape. Paired with reflective poems, essays, and contemplations on all aspects of being. Spanning two years’ worth of imagery, taken across three countries: Portugal, France, and England. Three separate environments, three alternate states of mind.
Each location having had a profound effect on my development both artistically and personally. The search for solace is present in the still, quiet, and measured approach, showing an existential longing for inner peace, while appreciating smaller moments of joy throughout.
The following images & spreads are some of my favourites from the book.
