Mark Forbes, Gebunden

Klappentext

"As time passes and details fade, the photographs that we
choose to hold onto become our memories. As a result
when an image is made, explicitly or subconsciously, decisions
are being made about how things will be remembered."
These images are Australian photographer's Mark
Forbes Collected Memories.

Five years in the making, his debut monograph presents a
cohesive blend of carefully composed scenes, from faded
interiors and common, relatable spaces, to the romance
of our environment being reclaimed by nature. Turning
the pages there is a stirring sense of both subtle ordinary
beauty and inherent personality sprinkled across each of
the large plates. Forbes' photographic preference, using
medium format film, is slow and methodical-and this
approach can be felt throughout the quiet pages.
Melbourne-based photographer MARK FORBES (*1980,
Middlesbrough, UK) is best known for his considered and
atmospheric documentary photography of street scenes, urban
landscapes and interiors. He employs film as his medium of
choice for personal documentary work-using predominantly
traditional medium format cameras. His work has been widely
exhibited in international public and private galleries.
