Fotoii Mag Issue #001 | Page 3

Editorial Dear readers, Your responses were numerous and it was with great pleasure that we read your words of thanks, your suggestions and advice. We are pleased to see that our intentions have met your needs and wishes and we hope to once again satisfy your expectations with the content of this new issue. Looking ahead, with each new issue we invite you to discover the works of four photographers. This month’s issue is particularly close to my heart as, in my opinion, it gathers together some outstanding work. Each photographic essay embodies the mystery of the camera obscura as the selected artists guide us through a discovery of things both profound and sincere. Without a doubt, you will marvel at the photographic works of Swiss artists Fred Merz and Corinne Rusch, two artists who share the ability to reveal to us the reality of our modern consumer society. Through their eyes, we uncover facets which arouse curiosity and trigger profound reflections on the transience of life. Through the work of Manel Armengol and Corinne Mercadier, we are plunged into the mysteries of the universe. Readers will find themselves wandering through their secret gardens, drawn into unknown worlds full of imagination and sensibility. Looking at these evocative images, we can’t help but experience a strong sense of awakening and fascination. Finally, I would like to thank you, the readers, for the continued support you show the photographers, without whose devoted commitment we wouldn’t have the pleasure of being able to share these images with you. Yours truly, Marcel Boner
