《苏格兰偏远邮箱》是马丁·帕尔对景观摄影的首次尝试。2004至2010年间，帕尔与妻子在苏格兰本土及奥克尼、设得兰、巴拉、路易斯、艾莱等外围岛屿度假时，时常驻足拍摄当地邮箱。通过帕尔的镜头，这些孤立的红色文明前哨在荒寂而壮美的苏格兰风光映衬下，各自被赋予独特的个性与人格。

 

"当你置身荒芜之地，面对苍凉景色与狂野天气时，这些小小的邮箱会带来奇妙的慰藉——它们标志着人类活动的存在，生命的延续，以及你与世界的联结。"——苏西·帕尔

 

《苏格兰偏远邮箱》以两种形式呈现：一是88页手工缝制书籍，除邮箱影像外附有地图坐标定位及苏西·帕尔的短文；二是由12张未装订明信片组成的邮册。两册均置于特别设计的包装盒中。

 

Remote Scottish Postboxes is Martin Parr’s first contribution to landscape photography. Between 2004 - 2010, Parr and his wife holidayed on the Scottish mainland and outlaying islands of Orkney, Shetland, Barra, Lewis and Islay, stopping frequently to capture the local Postboxes. Through Parr’s photographs, these isolated, red outposts of civilisation each take on a character and personality of their own, against the lonely yet beautiful Scottish backdrop.

 

“When you are in the middle of nowhere, in a bleak landscape and in wild weather, these little post boxes are strangely comforting, a sign that other people are around, that life is going on, and that you are connected to the world” - Susie Parr

 

Remote Scottish Postboxes is presented in two ways; as a hand- stitched, 88 page book, in which the postboxes are accompanied by maps and co-ordinates of their locations and featuring a short text by Susie Parr, and as a Postcards book, comprised of 12 unbound postcards. Both books are presented in a specially designed box.
