About How Beautiful This Place Can Be
For How Beautiful This Place Can be, O'Sullivan returned to South Africa, where he is from and photographed the daily lives of people around him. The result is a powerful body of work that gathers the reality of the place. Accompanying the photos are extracts taken from family letters. Accordingly, the historical weight and the social relevance of this book are undeniable. Stuart O'Sullivan's images documents the political transformation of South Africa as well as the experience of his family. Through still lifes of family photos, family portraiture and contemplative landscapes as well as family documents, the photographer recreates what the country and its people were going at a very convulsive time.
