The airports of the world are non-spaces, and they are
at the same time both global and transnational territories. Each airport
seems to be carrying the same duty free shops, internet connection, the
empire of mobile phones and high technology products. This series of photographs
document several airports in the world (Bangkok, London, Frankfurt, Paris,
Dhaka, Accra, Amman, Tokyo). The images show no sign of cultural specificity
that normally makes countries different. Entering an airports is like penetrating
the global culture.
