Bilingual English-French, Hardcover, 17 x 22,5 cm
Kristina R. Johnsen and Sébastien Van Malleghem
“The sea gives and the sea takes was the mantra up north”, says the author Kristina R. Johnsen, who comes from a family of fishermen in Vesterålen, Norway.
With her home island as a focal point, Yderst (“on the edge” or “outermost” in Norwegian) dives into the coasts of Europe, exploring the coastal heritage and how we live with and from the sea today.
Combining Northern Norwegian storytelling with European black-and-white photo tradition, Yderst weaves together communities and lives from he Arctic north to the frills of France.
With a series of essays, inspired by Jack Kerouac's “On the road”, and a series of photographs by Sébastien Van Malleghem, Yderst brings together two approaches, visual and literary, and takes the reader on a journey with lurking undercurrents and baking sun. From the high seas of the Arctic to the tourist beaches of Belgium. From the winding fjords in the north to the jagged reefs of western France.
288 pages, 125 B&W photographs
