“Altered States of Agoraphobia” is the first book of the British photographer Simon Kossoff, with a foreword by Blake Andrews. 123 psychogeography photographs immerse us in the author’s half-truth and half-fiction all over the USA. In over two decades of changing times, countries, jobs, loves, and losses, photography has been Kossoff’s only constant and his camera has performed in the role of quiet instructor in the practice of paying attention.
Travelling through difficult and uncertain times, his photographs connect the search for personal orientation, between the dreams or ideas of a place and his actual experience of it in reality. It is a journey that explores the destination.
