Ultimate Burn (Special Edition)

The third in the Safe Little World Monograph series, The Ultimate Burn is a collaboration between Andrew Killick and Dean Ellery (aka Receive) that investigates the element of fire.

Primarily documenting, via 32 full colour photographs, a burn performed by Dean in June 2017, the book expands into a wider mediation and exploration of an archetypal metaphor that appears and reappears in the human imagination. The photographs are overlaid by motifs and symbols designed by Dean, and the resulting images are supported by original writing and a collection of quotes.

An encounter with the wonder of fire.
