Summer portfolio : Felipe Schiffrin

The Origin is an invitation to discover in these photographs  the textures, shapes and contrasts of a wild and extreme land in the south of Chile, at the ends of the world. It is there that glaciers, trees, rivers and mountains commingle in total harmony and where the winds will easily make you fall on the ground.

I have travelled throughout these far away places, in a silent retreat alongside nature, returning home to the roots, in an act of re-connection, walking alone alongs passages which were surely travelled by ancestral nomadic tribes, marvelling at the grandeur of the landscapes and the purity of each element.

It is a majestic sensation, so much peace and tranquility and a confidence that we are not beyond its reach, but rather part of a whole, though on many occasions we have decided to turn our backs on its existence. In each photograph, I strive to re establish that connection, that love for our unique world. – Felipe Schiffrin
