To most people an airport used to represent a place of optimism. An open place, oozing with expectiations and encounters. Recent world events have changed all that. Roissy Charles de Gaulle Airport has always been a special place for JH Engström. At the age of ten he moved to Paris with his parents. Charles de Gaulle was his first contact with the world outside his native Sweden. For this project he spent three weeks isolated in an airport hotel, photographing in and between the terminals.
