“The minute you have a minute, you don’t have it anymore”. So begins the journey of Spanish-born, London-based artist Coco Capitán on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, a train that doubles as a luxury hotel. While on its route from Paris to Venice, she became more than a photographer and transformed into a curious traveller taking a trip with friends. Images fluctuate from playful snapshots to thoughtful moments of contemplation. She captures the welcoming staff, the landscape rolling by, the opulence of the carriages, the genteel passengers, and more in a portrait of the intimate “slow living” that a train journey entails, with mindfulness and awareness of the surroundings.
