"One hundred photographs of houses in clearings by Luis Callejas. These photos are accompanied by drawings and three parallel conversations between Luis Callejas and Matteo Ghidoni, Elisa Cattaneo, and Jørgen Tandberg. The photographs were taken during three trips between Norway and Colombia. On each trip, Luis Callejas stayed alone for two weeks in each house. Most photos were done using the same 35 mm lens, avoiding wide angles encompassing each small space's totality. The conversations were triggered later by the photographs as opposed to direct experience; these images and conversations address the parallels between the construction of a house, a clearing, and the construction of an image. The houses were designed by the LCLA office in found, edited, and constructed forest clearings"--
"The book's starting point is a selection of seventy photographs by Luis Callejas. These images depict three houses and gardens designed by LCLA office in two forest clearings in the Andes mountains. The book also includes drawings and three parallel conversations between Luis Callejas and Matteo Ghidoni, Elisa Cattaneo, and Jørgen Tandberg. The photographs were taken during three trips between Norway and Colombia. Most were taken with the same 35 mm lens, avoiding wide angles encompassing each small space within a single frame. The ensuing conversations were prompted not by direct experience, but by sharing the photographs with the invited contributors. These images and conversations address the parallels between the construction of a house, the modification of a clearing, and the legibility of their mutual interdependence." -- www.luiscallejas.com (viewed October 21, 2024)
