Captured by photographer Iris Humm, this editorial series for Arxipelag documents the daily life and maritime surroundings of Captain Paul Watson. The images offer an intimate look at the subject aboard a wood-paneled vessel, leaning into a documentary aesthetic that emphasizes tactile details—from archived correspondence and vintage postal envelopes to the nautical textures of the ship’s cabin. Techniques such as analogue film and natural light are utilized to create a warm, nostalgic atmosphere, grounding the portraiture and still-life elements in a sense of lived-in authenticity. The series balances candid moments of work with observational shots of the environment, resulting in a cohesive visual record.
