About the Book
A few observations of a year when the world was paralyzed by a pandemic and ground to a halt.
A haunted tranquility charged with cultivated suspicion, social distancing, isolation and moral exhaustion.
This lockdown may have helped us to notice our own world again and more closely.
Almost all photographs were made during walks in and around the 1017 zipcode in Amsterdam.

About the Creator
Herman Wouters
Amsterdam, the Netherlands
I focus on projects recording places and objects in the public urban landscape. The photographs deal with vernacular subject matter and take note of human nature, in likely and unlikely places, revealing an often overlooked sign language of the street. This "Slow Photography", that balances on the edge between an actual documentation and personal vision, is often edited in small editions of self published photobooks and zines.
