Entre l’espace, Flavio Karrer

Entre l’espace is the first publication by Swiss photographer Flavio Karrer, who uses the camera as a creative tool, but also as a way of establishing connections between people and their surroundings. The book explores the relationship between the subjects being photographed, the author and those viewing the images, through constructed situations that present different forms of intimacy and ways of relating to space.

Published by Präsens Editionen, the book brings together two photographic series that trace a journey through Karrer’s spatial and social context. Some of the images focus on views of plane trees seen from a window and the changes they undergo with the light and the passing of time. The sequence is complemented by a poetic essay by writer and artist Arnaud Wohlhauser, while the cover image is by Swiss artist Caroline Ventura.

The publication comprises 88 interior pages printed on gloss-coated paper and four additional pages on translucent paper, Golden Star K Extra White by Fedrigoni Paper, which is also used for the dust jacket. The covers are made from Symbol Tatami, also by Fedrigoni. The entire publication was printed in four-colour process and bound as a sewn paperback with a dust jacket.
