Gli Isolani (The Islanders) (Hardcover): Alys Tomlinson Gli Isolani (The Islanders) (Hardcover)
Alys Tomlinson
R1,268 Discovery Miles 12 680 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

Working with a large format 5x4 camera, Gli Isolani draws upon the visual language of Tomlinson's previous projects, lending the black and white photographs a veil of timelessness. At the project's genesis, Alys researched the literature and poetry connected to the history and culture of the islands of Italy, exploring tradition and identity, ancient myths, folklore and fairy tales. Set against crumbling stone and rural fields, the images depict the elaborate and uncanny costumes and masks worn for Holy Week, and other events and festivals, sometimes inspired by pagan ritual and beliefs. The fantastical tales and precious costumes have been passed down many generations within these communities where customs run deep. The gestures and the costumes depicted in the photographs draw on the relationship between man and the land, the sacred and the profane, and good and evil.
