Description
Sabine Schirdewahn's fascination with Icelandic houses and the memories they hold is the inspiration for this series of photographs. In her exploration of deserted houses and interiors, many kept in pristine, museum-like condition by their family owners, Schirdewahn seeks out the tangible and intangible aspects of remembrance and privacy ? how the special qualities of a place, personal histories, evidence of love and care, can be preserved and revisited, or likewise fade away. In her visits to multiple such houses scattered across the beautiful Icelandic landscape or set in fishing towns, she offers a glimpse of poverty, new opportunities, and the narrative of memory in the modern age.
