Description of the book by the publishing house Saetta Books (translated by the contributor):
Here or elsewhere, how do we embrace a place we love? That’s the question Kamil Zihnioglu has been asking himself for the past five years as he explores Corsica and meets its inhabitants. Press photographer in Paris, he decided in October 2020 to leave his city to live on the island. This marked the start of an impossible quest: to capture in images the identity of this land and the people who live there. Like a mirror, the waters of the Mediterranean reflected his own face. “Who are you?” they seemed to ask him. Leaving aside his approach as a journalist, he was able to embark on a new journey without destination, exploring the feelings that this island provokes.
