Florence Montmare: Scenes from an Island [signed]

Scenes from an Island reflects on the human conditions of displacement and transience, played out against Ingmar Bergman's stark cinematic landscape on the remote island of Fårö, Sweden. Natural elements, the rocks and the water, function as a mirror reflection abling a view into the essence of yourself.

From the publisher:
Scenes from an Island is the second monograph by Florence Montmare. This collection of photographs and texts was created between 2014 and 2021, during various stays at the Ingmar Bergman Estate on the Swedish island of Fårö. Divided into three acts, Montmare’s series examines the vulnerability of humankind and nature, as reflected in the climate crisis and global conflicts. Set against the dramatic island landscape, which already served Bergman as a source of inspiration and a backdrop for his films, islanders and refugees become protagonists in a photographic reflection on the existential issues of our time.
