The World Burns Gently

  • Photographer
    Livia Peres

The quiet violence of our times seeps into the edges of the ordinary. This was our garden, our afternoon, interrupted by a fire that needed no introduction. In this image, the future plays, unaware, while the world burns gently out of frame.

LĂ­via Peres is a brazilian photographer and mother of three. After the birth of her first daughter, she left behind urban life in Brazil to embrace a quieter, more nature-centered life in Switzerland. Her work focuses on the emotional landscapes of motherhood and childhood, capturing both their beauty and their challenges.
