The Walls of Suzhou Gardens

Více o knize

The book showcases the transformative power of nature on architecture through Hélène Binet's photography in Suzhou's classical gardens. Her striking images capture the effects of weather and time, turning monotonous walls into vibrant representations of the natural world. By intertwining foreground and background, Binet crafts narratives that navigate between two-dimensional surfaces and three-dimensional spaces. Accompanied by an essay from architect Juhani Pallasmaa, the work highlights Binet's unique ability to blend precision with ambiguity, inviting viewers to engage their imagination.
