Submission Photography

Every time I walked into my room, I took a picture through the window

Every time I walked into my room, I took a picture through the window is a photographic diary made over a period of 17 days from the window of a second-floor apartment in Reykjavik, Iceland. As the title indicates, Catherine took a picture every time she entered her room, documenting her own comings and goings coinciding with the changes through the window. The 101 images of the book are identically composed, and an accompanying foldout calendar notes the date and time of each picture. The repetitive aspects encourage us to slow down as we browse the book, allowing us to appreciate the slight changes in detail. Though they were originally created in 2017, the feelings of isolation and confinement in these images resonate even stronger in our present times.
