Fine Art Photographer Charles Johnstone explores the vivid canals and ancient passageways of Venice, Italy in search of a new book project. A meditation on artistry and craft, "Remnants of Memory" celebrates beauty in the overlooked, anonymous objects we pass every day.

Director's Statement

The opportunity presented itself, unannounced, to glimpse and interweave three layers of craft - that of a fine art photographer working from the perspective of the Topographical School, with that of fine art bookmaking, against the backdrop of the art and craft come to life in the city of Venice, Italy.
