The Enchanted Ones
Publication date: April 2025Photobooks
The Enchanted Ones is a visual tale that drifts between reality and myth, inspired by the legends of the Brazilian Amazon. Shot entirely on 35mm black-and-white film, the book moves beyond documentary into the realm of the imaginary, capturing a world where the seen and unseen coexist.
At the heart of the book are the Encantados—shapeshifting beings said to inhabit the waters and forests. These mythical figures blur the boundary between human and spirit. Among them is the Boto, a freshwater dolphin that, according to legend, takes human form to lure people into the enchanted world beneath the river.
