GUERRE

Untitled (Iraq) 2009 from Richard Mosse on Vimeo.

Bullet scored paraphernalia lie scattered in the dangerous wastes of central Iraq, evoking sculpture by Giacometti, Moore, Serra. Live and spent fire litter the surrounding landscape, creating an indelible image of the playfulness of destruction. The soundtrack invokes a roll of Iraqi place names, some of which are immediately recognizable to us through countless news dispatches from Iraqi wars.
