Hanging Gardens

Story tells that Hanging Gardens was built to remind Queen Amytis of the green hills and valleys of her homeland. Homeland was Media, current North of Iran, where I have taken some of these photos.

I have never been anywhere so green.

Moving made me start this series. How much people move, or have to displace themselves. Always longing for the home, searching it wherever they go.

On est loin de la mer.

Let go of the image you had of green if it didn’t fill you.

When I closed my eyes they all looked at me.

Without sound and colour they flew.

Winds from the sea.
