Jordi Huisman - Rear Window Cairo #1

Jestem fotografem dokumentalnym i editorialnym z Hagi. Pracuję na całym świecie dla magazynów, agencji reklamowych, architektów i klientów komercyjnych. Oprócz tego realizuję projekty osobiste, takie jak Rear Window, podczas którego od 2010 roku fotografuję tylne widoki budynków na całym świecie.

W planowaniu urbanistycznym architekci często przykładają dużą wagę do projektowania frontów budynków, podczas gdy tyły bywają pomijane.

Rear views of homes in older cities often evolve more organically, as neat layouts are disrupted by encroaching greenery. A balcony might host a large satellite dish while an adjacent landing serves as storage space. In Southeast Asia, air conditioning units form their own façade; in Northern Europe, a Christmas tree planted in a courtyard has grown into a massive obstacle.

This series explores the backs of buildings in metropolises worldwide, revealing international differences and the resulting global chaos.

This is an Epson print, mounted on dibond. It has a protective UV layer which gives a matte effect. The print is framed in a light colored wooden frame. It has been used for an exhibition before but is in very good state.
Cairo #1 at 70x56cm has an edition of 15. It comes with a certificate of authenticity and is signed on the back.
