Journeys
Photographic and written records organized by a specific trip or journey.
-
Following the legend of Saint George and the dragon into Casa Batlló, I encountered a fairy-tale world of dragon-scale tiles, bone-shaped columns, and oceanic curves—and reflected on the distance between commercial alterations and Gaudí’s original vision.
-
Moving through Casa Milà’s undulating façade, light-filled courtyards, skeletal attic, and fantastical rooftop, I saw how Gaudí wove nature, practicality, faith, and imagination into a single residence.
-
Inside Gaudí’s unfinished Sagrada Família, the Nativity and Passion façades—and the still-incomplete Glory façade—reveal the awe and tension between nature-inspired design, religious devotion, and modern efforts to finish his work.
-
Using balconies as a frame, this essay explores the mutual gaze between buildings, residents, and passers-by: even as travellers take in the view, they unwittingly become part of someone else’s.
-
On the final day of the journey, we move from Maido’s exquisite cuisine to sunset and kisses in the Park of Love, looking back over twelve days of Peruvian surprises amid food, art, and the ocean breeze.
-
From the Larco Museum and the Lima Art Museum to the Plaza de Armas and the Monastery of San Francisco, followed by dinner at a celebrated chef’s table—a walk through Lima’s history, art, religion, and flavors.
-
Discovering Lima through art and food: visiting contemporary galleries and the home of artist Víctor Delfín, while sampling the city’s creativity in Amazonian cuisine and along the coast.
-
We slow down and wander through Cusco, from the Temple of the Sun, churches, and museums to the rhythms of everyday street life. With no fixed agenda, the old city surprises us at every turn.
-
Following the Urubamba River deep into the Sacred Valley, we explored Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Moray, and the Maras salt pans, discovering the ancient Incas’ profound understanding of nature in their stonework, waterways, and terraces.
-
At a railway station in Bangladesh, a stream of travellers, rooftop riders and street children making a living reveal stories of order, poverty, danger and everyday resilience—one face at a time.
