"Useful pictures don't start from ideas. They start from seeing." Robert Adams
Orri Jónsson was holidaying one summer in the north of Iceland with his family, when he stumbled upon an abandoned farmhouse and began taking photos of it. Fascinated with the results but disappointed by the restrictions of the 35mm film he had used, he returned to the motif with a large-format analogue camera. Orri thus photographed the gloriously decaying interiors of deserted houses throughout Iceland for the next twelve years, and Interiors contains the best of these images from 1999 to 2010.
Painterly in colour, rigorous in composition and lacking in people, Orri's photos evoke the personal histories of the inhabitants who long ago abandoned their homes. Interiors is shaped by an uncanny silence and sense of loss, most poignant in the images of objects people left behind - old buttons, newspapers and even a hot water bottle - tokens of vanished lives.

Descrizione libro hardcover. Condizione: Neu. Neu Neuware, auf Lager - Verlassene Gehöfte gibt es unzählige in den weiten und wildenLandstrichen Islands. Ihre ehemaligen Bewohner haben das bäuerliche Leben längst aufgegeben und sind in die Stadt gezogen. Die Wohnhäuser und Ställe haben schon häufiger Fotografen herausgefordert, die sie meist als Motive für romantische, schwarzweiße Landschaftsfotografien verwendeten. Orri Jónsson hingegen hat die geisterhafte Stimmung im Inneren der verfallenen Häuser eingefangen. Er hat zurückgelassene Möbel, Tapeten und abblätternde Wandmalerei in natürlichem Licht fotografiert. Auf seinen Bildern, die in den letzten zehn Jahren entstanden sind, zeigt Orri Jónsson diese isländischen Interieurs in einer ganzen Palette zarter Farben und haucht ihnen so wieder Leben ein. Orri Jónsson studierte an der School of Visual Arts in New York. Seine Fotografien sind in zahlreichen Magazinen erschienen darunter Changing Faces, Iceland Review, Big Magazine und Sky . Neben seiner Fotoarbeit ist Orri Jónsson Autor und Musiker. Zusammen mit Dagur Kári bildet er das Duo Slowblow, das Filmmusik komponiert und bereits mehrere CDs produziert hat.
