About the Book
The pictures included here are part of a collection of images, using both film and digital formats, taken over a period of eighteen months while living in the state of Alabama.
After moving down South from Wisconsin I received a friend´s request who wanted to know “what the South looked like”. Soon after that I started to create a record of the city I was living on and cities and towns I got to visit while traveling around the state of Alabama. By photographing exclusively from a street perspective I wanted to show through it my own condition and point of view as an outsider portraying a place simply the way I saw it.
The collection of images I amounted over that period of time show different aspects of a place to which I did feel close and distant at the same time. Using humor, irony, description and even metaphorical composition in some cases; I painted my own picture about a place I tried to call home even for a brief period of time.
