Documentary photographer Bert Teunissen has returned from Poland to add 41 new images to his burgeoning index of people and their homes. Thanks to a grant from Blue Earth Alliance in Seattle, Bert will continue to travel far and wide to create more images for his Domestic Landscapes project that he describes in this way:
For the past 12 years I've been driving around Europe, building up an archive of houses whose interiors have not changed for decades. It is a project about light, and the era in which natural daylight dictated the architecture of a place, how it was used, and where you'd find the furniture. And, of course, I need the owners in the picture, because they are the people who keep it the way it is.
Watch the series develop here.
Bert's 20x200 prints Saugnac et Muret #1, 27/12/2005 11:27 and LA ALBERCA #6 1/3/2005 12:56 are available in our largest edition size.
