Piercing the Darkness

Piercing the Darkness is the second monograph of award-winning American photographer Susan Bank, who studied under the tutelage of renowned photographers Graciela Iturbide and Constantine Manos. Taken in Cuba between the 1999 and 2009, Bank's choice of black-and-white film in a place so full of colour allows her to capture the heart and soul of her subjects - from the beautiful yet crumbling architecture to everyday moments in the lives of Cuba's citizens.
