Pan's Cave

Employing themes of classical and documentary travel photography, Baiker constructs new semiotic connections between historical and contemporary imagery. Cornerstones of Greek culture and history – politics, seafaring, architecture, sculpture and the theatre – become the parameters delineating the imagery of this project.

The book’s title, "Pan's Cave", is both example and representation of this kind of interplay between myths and reality. Using photography in a precisely calculated, temporally and locally selective way, Baiker creates new contexts and insights.
