Currently, a collection of works by female photographer Sam Contis, who lives in California, USA, "Deep Springs (Unopened)". This book was nominated for the 2017 Paris Photo First Photobook Award and was published by MACK, an independent publisher in the United Kingdom. It is based on the liberal arts college "Deep Springs College" founded in 1917 by the pioneer of education, LL Nunn. The college is small and all men. Through the fraternity and identity of these men and the myths that are passed down in the area, Contis gives readers various thoughts and problems such as the principle of human (relationship) formation, the ideal way of the community, and the relationship between the past and the present. I will throw it. Contis refuses to simply categorize things and continues to challenge the multi-layered and complex world. While respecting the good old things and the times, the stance of sticking to "modernity" is also wonderful. It is a book that will make you feel at home with the author's vision and the possibilities of artistic expression through photography. New unopened.
