Bummerland. Will Alder. Fourteen-Nineteen Books.

Bummerland is a publication about riding the waves. Through washed-out images of calm seas, rolling California hills and faded memories from a thousand summers past, Will Adler constructs a fantastical landscape of cute girls, deserted beaches and salty tides; at once immediately tangible, but dreamlike. Images bleed through pages, fold back on themselves and merge into an oscillating, hazy scrapbook of memories, of adventures and experiences – image experiences made and committed to memory in the downtime, that perfect fluctuating time between catching the next wave, or on the journey to the next big adventure.

The Tristans, Part 2.1. Lewis Chaplin. Fourteen-Nineteen Books.

The Tristans, Part 2.1 is part of Lewis Chaplin’s ongoing photographic and anthropological series of enquiries into the life of the islanders of Tristan Da Cunha – the most remote inhabited place in the world. Tristan Da Cunha is an active volcanic island no bigger than Manhattan, located in the middle of the Pacific ocean, a 14-day boat voyage away. The Tristans are British, using the pound sterling and the charming postcode of TDCU 1ZZ for the whole island – there are 250 of them, and seven surnames. Tristan Da Cunha now stands on the frontline in the battle against cultural hybridization and postmodernism, as they cling to the post-colonial remnant that is their island.
