The fourth in the Safe Little World Monograph series, Pride & Refuse by Andrew Killick examines the pitfalls, potentialities and aspirations of humankind.
Combining photographic images and graphic interventions with exhibition documentation, original writing and quotes, the project takes its title from Blaise Pascal's Pensées in which the 17th century polymath deals with the paradox of what it means to be human: 'Judge of all things, imbecile worm of the earth; depositary of truth, a sink of uncertainty and error; the pride and refuse of the universe.'
Beautiful, playful and poignant.
