Persis, in search of the midnight sun” A photographic narration contemplating the search for the eternal sun, a journey northward, a visual documentation of an Odyssey to the Great Arctic.

The poesy began in darkness and ended beneath the midnight sun. This series/book is an offering of gratitude, a gesture of giving back to the honour and harmony shared across Turtle Island’s wild lands, on all Native territories, and most especially in the Inuit homelands glowing under the eternal light.

An homage to Persis Gruben.

A tribute to the Great North and its quiet, generous welcome.

Driven by a restless nomadic spirit, and a six-wheeled old camping car, this journey follows the call of light, chasing the horizon where day never ends.

This project was selected by Gian Marco Sanna for the Discarded magazine prize during the liquida photo festival in Turin.
