Here, deep foliage, fungus and soft, refracted European light assuage concrete, steel and geometrics – as if the grand themes of the picturesque and the sublime were shrunken to microcosmic proportions.

Rather, \u003ci\u003eWalking in Place 2\u003c\/i\u003e, like its predecessor, is about the simple act of \u003ci\u003eseeing,\u003c\/i\u003e and its relationship to both our outer and inner selves. Amidst the golden light, greenery and oblique built environment of Berlin, Slack – led by little but the specificity of awareness – renders a world that is uniquely his own. From a sea of background noise, a quality of light and a sensibility of mind awaken us to moments bordering on reverie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boogiebooks.com\/products\/walking-in-place-1-new-orleans-by-mike-slack\"\u003eWalking in Place 1: New Orleans\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boogiebooks.com\/products\/walking-in-place-3-tokyo-by-mike-slack\"\u003eWalking in Place 3: Tokyo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSECOND EDITION\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eWalking in Place 2: Berlin\u003c\/i\u003e, Los Angeles-based photographer \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mike__slack\/\"\u003eMike Slack\u003c\/a\u003e offers a meditative, if not psychic, expansion on the threads underpinning the first title in his series of standalone books, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boogiebooks.com\/products\/walking-in-place-1-new-orleans-by-mike-slack\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eWalking in Place 1: New Orleans\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/a\u003e While his meanderings through the Big Easy saw him piece together a playful dialogue of architectural gestures, cats, flora and street ephemera – all rendered in the almost impossibly vibrant hues unique to the famed city – his strolls through the German capital shimmer with a very different palette, syntax and philosophic hue.
