Background information
A photographic survey of the American soul, a glimpse into the fringes of society as well as an expression of independence, pride and freedom. Whether in the mountains of California or on the rooftops of New York, in all parts of the United States one can be overcome by a sense of remoteness that is not only rooted in the vastness of the land, but also manifests itself in the absence of a society. One can spend days without meeting a human being. And yet signs and mailboxes indicate that people live in these areas far from society. Similarly, one can lose oneself between concrete and asphalt in the confines of the big city.
Content
With her large-format book of photographs 'Off Worlds. 2017-2020' Louise AMELIE and Aljaž FUIS literally look at the periphery, the outskirts and outskirts of the American natural and urban landscapes. Their color photographs do not necessarily describe a spatial demarcation from society, but also a systemic or perceived demarcation that not infrequently turns into an expression of independence, pride, and freedom."

Additional information
The paperback photo book impresses by its dimension (37,5 x 27 cm.), which gives the 25 color photographs of Louise AMELIE & Aljaz FUIS that freedom, which is also the subject of their photo book. The book design is by Moritz BORCHARDT.
