A photographer and a painter have dedicated this work to their two year old daughter. Made for the most part on the Greek island of Hydra, the pictures reimagine a child's gaze that still has an untethered and pristine view of the world. In trying to capture the unspoiled aspect of their surroundings the couple found a new way of working, inspired by the things their daughter pointed out on their walks across the island: it brought the photographer to focus on small and intimate details such as an animal shape formed by metal wire, debris found on the beach, or the face they encountered in the crumbling wall of a deserted hotel in an empty bay.
