All That Fall Has Wings : Monte Alto Cyanotypes
A visual diary of living through a pandemic in Monte Alto from a Korean perspective.
The photographs were captured during the first phase of the confinement in Spain that began on
March 14, 2020, during the short outings with my pet. I made prints onto a traditional Chinese
calligraphy paper, using cyanotype and coloring it with natural dyes. Each copy weighs 30 gr. I
wanted to make them light and delicate as if images could fall, fly and travel into the uncertain and
unknown.
