Karoline Hjorth and Riitta Ikonen Present Eyes as Big as Plates 2 @Rizzoli Book Store

  • Rizzoli Bookstore 1133 Broadway New York, NY, 10010 United States (map)

"The resulting works are gorgeous, richly imaginative photographs….the project is one that’s profoundly life-affirming, both in its portrayal of the elderly and of our environment." —Artsy.net

The ongoing photography series Eyes as Big as Plates started out in 2011 studying personifications of nature and folkloric explanations of natural phenomena. A decade later it has evolved into a continual search for modern human’s belonging in nature.... The second book in the series features new portraits produced in collaboration with retired wrestling coaches, pub patrons, Sami reindeer herders, Aboriginal uncles, kantele players, librarians, wild boar hunters, and surfers across four continents.
