Foam invited the celebrated American Magnum photographer Alec Soth together with curator Hinde Haest to introduce the Foam exhibition I Know How Furiously Your Heart Is Beating. The photography series in the exhibition is the result of a personal search, in which the photographer slowed down his work process and turned the lens inward. During the online Zoom talk Soth gave an insight into his recent personal and professional transition, his sources of inspiration and working process.⁠⠀⁠⠀
⁠
Come and see Alec Soth - I Know How Furiously Your Heart Is Beating at Foam until 6 December 2020.⁠

I relate so much with the last answer Alec gave, I feel very self-indulgent whenever the 'spotlight' is turned on myself too. But I'm trying to beat that feeling and try and tell myself that my own feelings are valid enough to be depicted by me in a series.

This is the first time I've heard photos measured in pounds.

great talk, but so distracting to have so many screenshots to see who is online..whats the point ? just looking at Alec's photo is enough thank you. Thats all I want to focus on.
