FLEE Project 003
Born in myths and raised in endless stories of expeditions and endurance across long months sailing along the coast of Arabian Sea, pearl diving music is versatile in nature. Lead by a “monstrous” soloist or accompanied by percussions, the songs sing about fortune, sailing, and the depth of the sea.

Daniel Gustav Cramer: 01-72
|
$28.00
|
Oceanic rhythms; water and its image. Or, more precisely, 72 photographs, each depicting a fragment of seawater, taken from roughly 30 meters above sea-level somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea. The lens is looking down onto the open water, each water portrait appears like the previous one, but each differs in nuances, since all 72 images are taken in chronological order, in about a span of 18 minutes.

Tarantismo : Odyssey of an Italian Ritual
|
$70.00
|
FLEE Project 002
Female hysteria, exorcism, and music as a cure. In front of Chiara Samugheo (Pier Paolo Pasolini's photographer)’s lens, the suffered ones take on a fictional charm of the Neorealismo, yet the suffer is true. Tarantismo : Odyssey of an Italian Ritual dusts off the almost terrifying elements to Pizzica, the antique music used to heal people suffering from a mysterious disease, by presenting a contemporary attempt to reflect on this extraordinary phenomenon involving frenetic rhythms and maniac dancing.

Stable Vices
|
$55.00
|
Stable vices is a term used to describe unpleasant, abnormal animal behaviors, which may be caused by boredom, discomfort, or confinement. In the book, artist Joanna Piotrowska photographs the (re-) actions of one woman in conflict with an unknown, absent subject in a similar way the hysterical women are portrayed in Tarantismo. The metaphor of disease and its invisibility expand into sources of female insecurities within the context.
