Orbit

In Orbit different projects from Belgian artist Tom Callemin, made in the past four years, are compiled and accompanied by short descriptions to give insights on how the images came about. The book is designed as a binder with foldouts. The title Orbit refers to the principal theme in the book, which is 'time' and the idea of things reoccurring within it. Some images explicitly refer to these 'orbits' by portraying the moon or the sun on their path, which is humans' way to measure the passage of time. Des Palais is a collaboration between Belgian visual artists Tom Callemin and Bieke Depoorter. Both Callemin and Depoorter studied photography at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent, where Callemin is affiliated as a researcher. Depoorter is a member of the photographic cooperative Magnum Photos.
