Preview

Photographer Christophe Jacrot publishes a new book entitled “Snjór”, which means “snow” in Icelandic. Christophe Jacrot began nearly ten years ago this project on weather that led him to immortalize the great cities of the northern hemisphere in the rain and in  the snow. A snow that, with global warming, is becoming increasingly rare, ” For the last three years I despaired of not being able to make images of winter in Europe, he said. In search of a world both populated and snowy, I found Iceland (…). This country allowed me to escape megacities as I surveyed, and rediscovered the outdoors, “says the photographer in the preface of his new book, which includes 40 photographs taken over five trips between late 2014 and mid-2016. ”
