AWARENESS, a matter of time is a collector’s edition book by Christian Clauwers, featuring over 150 photos on 240 pages, all taken between 2013 – 2022. This high quality printed coffee-table book contains a lot of previously unpublished photos, including the R/V BELGICA.

OVERVIEW

In his new book AWARENESS, a matter of time, Christian Clauwers features 150 images of his projects in the Arctic, the Antarctic, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific and the Southern Ocean. In addition, the book contains two extensive scientific expeditions that he documented on the Belgian research vessel R/V Belgica and the French R/V Marion Dufresne. The result reveals a vulnerable world of ice and water, remote islands and places on our planet that have almost completely fallen into oblivion. A complete immersion in the ocean and polar regions, AWARENESS, a matter of time is a highlight and summary of five years of expeditions around the globe.
