Is
by Grant Archer

This is a project about Iceland

This is a project about me.

It is about the solitude of the Island, of the repetition of landscapes.

It is about the solitude of the photographer, of the repetition of frames.

It is the endless black roads and cold black beaches.


It is the endless search for light and time.

It is a series of fragments.

It is its own inherent failure.

It is about my relationship with the camera.


It is the extracts and flashes of what was and never will be again.

Its is about quiet

It is about panic

It is about managing and it is about surviving
