Produktbeschreibung
Lighthouse represents things near and far away, Donovan Wylie's camera crosses channels that flicker between barriers and invitations. Following the June 2016 referendum on the United Kingdom leaving the European Union, Wylie began to photograph distant lighthouses on key procedural dates; exploring ideas of family and fractured relationships to understand the United Kingdom's current state, and eloquently contemplating how isolation and identity shape its sense of self. Glimpsed from the opposing coastlines of France, Northern Ireland and Great Britain, the afterglow of the distant lighthouses became a way to process the tensions and complexities of identity and insularity, loneliness and love.
