Writing on Air

For centuries, humans have tried to master air. Sea captains rein it in with their sails and pilots cut through it with their wings. We have machines to pump air into our lungs and computers to anticipate the movement of the winds. Air pervades everything we do and gives us life, yet it is impossible to capture. We can only evoke it through images, impressions and feelings. This book offers a collage of such evocations expressed through prose, poetry, photography and drawings.
