Path of Least Resistance
(2020 - ongoing)
Rivers find the path of least resistance from higher ground to the sea. People have lived, traveled, fought and made their livelihood on these waters for a very long time. Often they form borders, become an overlapping zone of national or regional culture, or a place to trade goods or services with neighbours. Often they are flanked by rich agricultural land. These can be strange and unusual places. People sit and stare at the river all day, happy if they come home with a fish. Since 2020 I have been been traveling down Germany's different rivers by bicycle. The Rhine, Danube, Spree and Oder. This series is a slow-travel observation of these meandering arteries of our continent, and the life around them.
