Zona de Alb

Edition: 100 copies signed

"In the 1950s, the Romanian authorities announced that leprosy, this 'divine punishment', had been eradicated in Romania, whereas actually all lepers had secretly been sent to Tichilesti. Officially recognised in the 1990s, but admitted nowhere, fourteen villagers still remain in this white zone, the territory of the forgotten, the “Zona de Alb”. In 1999, I took a path leading away from the main road that followed the Danube Delta. In 2016, I came back, and found that scientific and social progress have not followed the same path."

"Sukurin is a new publication that explores the work of photographer Daniel Sannwald in 100 unique editions. The book is the physical counterpart to a website made in collaboration between Daniel and YES Studio. The website positions Daniel’s work from the last 10 years in uniquely generated layouts, a clash of subjects from Music, Fashion and Portraiture come together to present Daniel’s work in a warped interpretation of the contexts in which it exists — billboards, music videos and spreads in Fashion magazines."

Sarah Pollman - The Distances Between Us

The Distances Between Us

by Sarah Pollman
Designed by Dennis Hankvist / Trema Förlag
56 pages; 8x11.25 inches
Offset Printing
Edition of 400
360 SEK // $40USD

"The Distances Between Us is a visual investigation of cemetery markers used to describe the anonymous deceased. The book contains photographs of elaborately carved stones labeled father and mother and numbered markers from cemeteries that formerly served state-run hospitals, jails and schools. Collectively, the images explore photography’s inherent relationship to memory and loss, recalling nineteenth century post-mortem photographs, eulogic portraits of loved ones displayed on mantels, and the desperation we feel to immortalize the lost."

Offset print
Edition of 800/Special edition of 30 including a signed print
48.00 EUR

"Misha Pedan’s images are infiltrated by another presence, that of a fellow artist, Jan
Håfström, whose earlier work The Eternal Return is overlaid, subtly and sometimes almost imperceptibly, onto Pedan’s own. Two series crossing and intersecting, without merging into a third unity."

"On some level we all want to be somebody else, somebody special. We all look for that transformative thing, that for a moment makes us forget who we are and lets us be free from our worries. I think most people find it on some level or another – a place where they can forget who they are and become somebody else."
