Looking for signs by Peter Finnemore
- In stock, ready to ship
The book revisits ancient and modern symbols through the camera of Peter. The visuals are diverse and some take us back to the ancient cave paintings while some remind us of the latest photo jargon. It is a beautiful narrative by a photographer from across the sea.

Looking For Signs, is an experience of India made through the expressive frame of a hand held camera. The snapshot vision is used as a means of fluid and creative documentation of social spaces and experiences of the self, set in the atmosphere and dynamic arena of India. The artistic territory of this art is located within existential, abstract and fragmented social encounters.
A fleeting convergence of appearances and dissolutions, where self and other, collide and merge through the meeting point of a camera. The snapshot aesthetic, with its ease, its lack of hierarchies and pictorial energy is utilized here within the broad language of fine art, where meaning is open, expanded and uncertain.
These subjective photographs of travel are made in the mind, where the camera mediates between appearance, experience and idea. My motivation is one of a pilgrim and not a tourist. P.F
