Description
FloodZone by Anastasia Samoylova is a poignant photographic account of life on the southern United States' climatic knife-edge. The book presents a subtle and often unsettling portrayal of waiting for, and living with, the consequences of climate change. The color palette is tropical, yet the mood is pensive and melancholy. Lush greens, azure blues, and pastel pinks dominate the scenes, but they are juxtaposed with images of crumbling walls, tourist paradise, and nature's threat to reclaim the land. Water permeates every aspect of Samoylova's urban landscapes, from waves and ripples to puddles and pools. The carefully paced sequence of photographs, arranged as interlocking chapters, make no judgment, simply showing the contradictions of this place. As sea levels rise and hurricanes threaten, the beauty of the coast becomes bittersweet. The future is uncertain, but life goes on in FloodZone, a book about living with the contradiction.
