JH Engström


- For his project CDG, Engström spent three weeks isolated in an airport hotel, photographing the spaces and terminals of Charles de Gaulle. His images capture luggage carts, plastic chairs, parking garages, and weary travelers. The images were photographed in color and then printed using a special process that renders the print with a overall cast of gray, creating haunting monochromes. I recently saw a print of the top image above while at Aperture and the result of this printing process is really something beautiful. See more work from this project as well as others here.
