From the author’s introduction:
“Antarctic Verses is a project that began in early January of 2012. At that time I traveled by ship from Ushuaia, Argentina through Beagle Channel and across the infamous Drake Passage to reach the Antarctic Peninsula. For 11 days I experienced the dramatic terrain of the Southern Continent. Equipped with two medium-format film cameras, I visually recorded moments of what I understood to be a shared consciousness between the ever-transforming landscape, the peninsula’s inhabitants, and myself. The result is the following collection of photographs, or as I see them, a series of visual verses. It is my intention that the photographs read as a poem or song. The images may stand alone, just as a stanza may secure it own legacy, but together they create a larger representative ethos.”
