Zes foto's van een reis naar Egypte 1927

This is Carolina Onnen's photo album page from a trip to Egypt, and it's like stumbling upon a visual diary, you know? The sepia tones give everything a hazy, dreamlike quality. It’s not just about recording a place; it’s about the feeling of being there. Look at the photo of the pyramids - the sharp edges of the ancient structures contrast against the soft, grainy sky. It’s a play between permanence and the fleeting moment, like a memory trying to hold onto something solid. Notice the handwritten notes, too. They're so personal, like little whispers from the artist herself. It reminds me of Agnes Martin, the way she used simple forms to convey profound emotions. There's a quietness here, a sense of contemplation that invites you to slow down and reflect. Ultimately, art is about sharing a way of seeing, and Onnen invites us to see Egypt through her eyes, with all its beauty and mystery.
