Gustav Nel

Gustav Nel has been chasing one image for twenty years.

Not a place. A feeling. The moment a palm catches light in a way that stops you from whatever you were thinking about. He has found it on volcanic ridges in Hawaii, on forgotten coastlines in Costa Rica, in the still heat of afternoons that refused to end.

He does not photograph palms. He photographs what they hold.

CasaDeGustav is where that obsession becomes permanent.

“I photograph the line between what exists and what vanishes.

– Gustav Nel
