Maroesjka Lavigne: Someone, Somewhere, Sometime
”For Lavigne, nature is unconquerable, and everywhere: a small figure peers contemplatively over a bridge, allowing the falling snow to envelop his image in white, while a suburban street sleeps trustingly beneath an ominous, rust-colored sky.”

This debut monograph from award-winning photographer MAROESJKA LAVIGNE includes four of the artist’s series: Island, Not Seeing is a Flower, Land of Nothingness, and Lost Lands. Each series spans several years in the making, during which she traveled to Argentina, Iceland, Japan, and Namibia, among other locations, observing landscapes and their inhabitants. Lavigne produces stunningly beautiful images that are tenderly attuned to their settings and subjects. As the photographer puts it: “When you take a picture in a beautiful place, you have to realize that nature isn’t the background for your photograph. Rather, you are its prop.”
