Exploring the delight to be found in small everyday interactions and chanceobservations, Look Here will chart an emotional map of London, navigatingideas of anonymity and identity, freedom and space (and who has access tothese things), and community, while reflecting on whether the never-endingcarousel of clothing we see on strangers holds some deeper meaning.
Wherever she goes, Ana Kinsella looks around her with a keen eye for small,illuminating details, and a love for variety and emotional connection. LookHere is a gorgeous, layered portrait of a city and its people, a book that urgesus to slow down, look closer and find beauty.
