Dearest Joseph is an offbeat photo-novel. Is an epistolary tale set in Venice. A dialogue between two languages – photography and prose – and a third interlocutor: Joseph Brodsky, author of Watermark: An Essay on Venice. It is a story that unfolds after the end of a relationship, when love endures nonetheless. A time of emotional mourning. The after is never clearly defined; its edges remain uncertain, malleable — stretch marks of the soul. A year lasts a day; four seasons become four years, four journeys. Twenty-four hours.
