"These Earthly Shores" is a corpus of images that explores the definition and origin of the poetic landscape as it relates to memory and the passage of time. The geography of the place becomes a depiction of a peculiar natural beauty that emerges as a recollection rather than a faithful representation of its physical form. The natural world is transformed into a set of symbolic portraits that reflect the emotional connection to various pasts, the senses, the complexities, the nostalgic and invisible stories woven into the humane.
The creation of a new context is proposed inside the book by incorporating poems by the Greek poet Dimitris Leontzakos. The poems do not impose a way to interpret the pictures nor the pictures define the form and the content of the poems. Instead, a multilayered flow of poetry appears to co-exist. The relationship created by the poems and the images transforms that context into a completely new and organic, a non-linear narrative.
