From panoramic vistas of Australia and Israel to New York after the 9/11 attacks and Fukushima post the 2011 nuclear accident, the Oscar-nominated filmmaker’s large-scale photographs document a sense of place, from the desolate to the urban sprawl.
These images were included in a show at the Fundació Sorigué in Lleida from October 10, 2013 to March 30, 2014.
About the author
Born in the heart of London, Freire's been surrounded by art since childhood. From being mesmerised by Fra Angelico's frescos in Florence to experiencing Dali's Mae West room in Caduceus, Freire's extensive travels instilled a love of the arts. After studying painting she worked for David Bowie's, Bowieart and began to write for the BBC, Bon and Dazed & Confused. She curated the Converse x Dazed Emerging Artists Award and was one of the first cohort to graduate from the Royal College of Art's Critical Writing in Art & Design MA. When not at an art opening, she's excited to bring her global art discoveries to the Culture Trip's readers.
