The House Above the World






Amica January 2012

These pictures remind me of 'The House Above the World' (from Albert Camus' novella, 'A Happy Death'). I refer to the idyllic abode of three girls who are good friends of the protagonist Mersault - they are carefree, disinhibited spirits, each with their own peculiar habits and idiosyncrasies.

I love the way light strikes their hair and their faces, the white linen, the woolly greys, the browns and tans. The interior design is also striking; the mottled white-washed walls, with a hint of sky blue peeking out from underneath, lend the place a sense of bucolic serenity. And the windows - all different shapes, antique, light pouring in from everywhere.
