[happy new year]

From the preface I wrote for my intended future book on the art of photography, now called “ambiguities, dualities, parallel worlds – a small collection of diptychs”, I extracted this small excerpt that says:

For the blue is not the place those miles away at the horizon…Blue is the color of longing for the distances you never arrive in, for the blue world.” (Lisa Elmalech) Continue reading “The Blue World”
