Walking piece

“Orientation” brings together five prose pieces that describe a radical alteration in the author’s perception as she explores the world on foot. Most of these pieces were previously connected to individual photographs or photographic projects. In this chapbook, the texts are given a chance to speak to each other, and to show the progression in Alexandra’s thinking about walking and landscape.

“Icelandic culture is infused with stories of travel. When names were needed for modern machines, the technology that enables our imaginations to travel, words were chosen that centred on the quality of roaming. Thus the neologism for laptop is fartölva, formed from the verb far, meaning to migrate, and tölva – migrating computer’; its companion, the external hard drive, is a flakkari. The latter word can also mean ‘wanderer’ or ‘vagrant’. In the end it’s the wanderers we rely on.” From Nancy Campbell’s “The Library of Ice”.
