Synopsis

The images in Hurricane Season are taken in the southern part of the federal state Louisiana in the United States. In this peiar landscape live millions of America’s poorest citizens. It is as if nature itself indicates the level of segregation – the lower the country level is, the greater the proportion of black and poor. Every year these areas are flooded by the summer and autumn storms that trikes Louisiana. When these storms develop into major hurricanes the poorest and most low-lying parts suffer the hardest. Floods are a natural part of life and the inhabitants have in a fatalistic way adapted to the frequency of the hurricanes.

A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The award-winning photographer Hannah Modigh presents here over 60 of her photographs of Louisiana's idiosyncratic landscape, home to millions of America's most deprived citizens. Every year the area is flooded by the summer and autumn storms that strike Louisiana. When these storms develop into major hurricanes the poorest and most low-lying parts suffer the hardest, and the inhabitants have adapted to the frequency of the hurricanes in a fatalistic way. This is perhaps the most penetrating depiction of life in southern Louisiana ever made.
