Magnum Photosさんのインスタグラム動画 - (Magnum PhotosInstagram)「Mark Power (@marktpower): “My ongoing, five-book series, Good Morning, America, will eventually contain work made in all fifty states, which is why I made a recent trip to Alaska exactly ten years after I began the project, in Florida, back in 2012. ⁠ ⁠ “My work is often concerned with the meeting of myth and reality, and never more so than here in Valdez, where I finally found the Alaskan town I’d been searching for. It had existed in my imagination long before I’d been there. Sadly, Valdez will forever be synonymous with the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989, which devastated much of the marine life in the surrounding area, and the town continues to be dominated by a huge oil terminal. But it’s also a place of extraordinary natural beauty, its colossal mountains tumbling into the sea, giving them the appearance of being even taller than they already are. ⁠ ⁠ “As a photographer based in Britain, I can look back at the work I’m making in the US with distance — both literal and metaphorical — simply because I’m not back in the American landscape every time I open my front door. As a result, this picture has grown on me since leaving Alaska, and I suspect it will be included in the next book in the series, Volume Four.”⁠ ⁠ Mark Power’s photograph, taken in Valdez, Alaska, is available as a signed archival-quality 6x6” print from just $110 + tax via the link in bio. ⁠」4月18日 23時30分
