At the heart of the work lies a quiet contradiction: an optimism that insists on creating while time still allows it, and a lucid awareness that all things eventually fade. This duality defines the book’s tone—hopeful and resigned, fragile and persistent. Each image feels like a gesture of continuity against the inevitable, a way of saying we are still here.
The final chapter turns inward. Together with Void, Verschaeve explores the anatomy of the photobook itself: experimenting with different sequences, building alternate narratives, and revealing the invisible logic of editing. An index decodes these narrative threads, while a schematic score translates the book’s rhythm into notation. What begins as a meditation on endings concludes as a reflection on how stories are made—and remade—as long as the sun lasts.
