Notes
Pop-up book. Covers printed in white ink. It contains ten black and white pictures, a story and a poem.
Gotes (drops) is the story of an intimate and mysterious landscape. It builds slowly, quietly. An ephemeral landscape with a little story inside. Their black and white pictures, with soft shadows and minimalist character, evoke a poetic place with a lot of small details. The drop-down format allows the viewer to participate in the creation of that story, getting in it from different angles to discover its secrets rather saved.
