Down with the Uprising.
Warsaw is known as the city that survived it's own death. But what exactly was the uprising of 1944 and why does it leave such an impenetrable, intangible feeling that still defines this place so many years on?
HISTORY
My personal attempts to contextualise and understand the holocaust by way of site visits, research and correspondence.
Still / Moving.
A single image captures a moment in time. Powerful, yet arbitrary. In reality there is movement, subtle and sublime. The holocaust sites of Poland & Lithuania, captured in time-lapse are, indeed, still moving.
Arte_Fact_
The objects displayed in pristine glass cabinets at the holocaust memorials of Poland are accompanied by terse descriptions. But what stories do they really tell? What is left after their owners have left this earth? Artefact.
Articulate_Gdansk
Stung by the Baltic winds, few places articulate their place in history as much as the shipyards of Gdansk. Immaculate dilapidation, faded splendour and a rugged, irresistible charm. Captured on a phone clasped between frozen fingers.
In_Fields_Redux.
To visit the Nazi execution sites of Eastern Europe today is to face one’s deepest senses of fear and intrigue. Walking the lonely, isolated forest paths is the one thing I can do to attempt to understand.
For hundreds of thousands of lost souls, their memory lies In Fields. This is for them.
