Horizon

Sometimes distant, sometimes very close, and sometimes completely invisible: the horizon fascinates.
Portuguese artist Carolina Selash addresses this mysterious line in her book, which resembles a colorful game with our perception more than a story.
Why do we see the world the... way we do? This is the main question posed to us (and undoubtedly to herself) by the author.
Carolina Selash invites us to engage in a dialogue with this enigmatic line, which raises so many questions — a dialogue with the horizon.
The text resembles a poetic haiku. Its lines accompany the reader from the first to the last page. Just like the horizontal line that runs throughout the book.
The line is part of each illustration: page by page, a new world appears — or rather, a new perspective on the world.
Because, as in life, in this book everything is a question of perspective.
Along the horizontal line, Carolina Selash projects interiors, urban landscapes, and sceneries that the reader can view from the most diverse points of view.
