Jasper Conran Country Synopsis
“The fact that I am a designer – someone who has worked all his life with fabrics, colours, shapes and textures – does not make me an expert on rural affairs. But when it comes to appreciating the texture of the countryside, I think it might help.” Jasper Conran
Jasper Conran lives, works in and treasures the English countryside. In Country, Jasper’s first book, he reveals his unique vision of ‘country’ in a very personal and arresting photographic essay captured during a year of encounters, explorations and insights.
The allure of the countryside has a universal aspiration, but how do we achieve the dream? It is not about spending money, or prescribing to a certain style, it is about appreciation, self-expression, getting back to the root of what makes us tick and taking time to look at what is here and now.
