摄影师Martin Usborne小时候曾经被关在车里。虽然没有关多久，但当时的他在想会有人回来给他开门吗？在差不多同一年龄，他爱上了那些不会说话的狗，就像他当时被关在车里时感受到的安静一样。30年后，在这个电影般的黑色幽默项目中，这两种经验融为一体，探讨了人类能够让自己最喜欢的动物沉默的方式。在拍摄这个项目的过程中没有狗受到伤害。

'The Silence of Dogs in Cars', 96pp, cloth spine, 156mm x196mm. Photography by Martin Usborne. With an introduction by Lucy Davies.

Once leftin a car, for a short while as a young kid, Martin remembers the feeling thatno-one might come back. Around about the same time he identified and fell inlove with dogs - they were also silent, just as he felt in the car. A fewdecades later the two memories fused into this strangely melancholic but alsosubtly humorous project.

Thesecinematic photographs of dogs in cars, taken mostly at night, reveal anemotional honesty that only animals can express. Behind the dogs’ eyes arefeelings that humans so often avoid: the fear of being alone, the uncertainty ofthe unknown, but also a certain hope that can be found in silence.

This workpreviously appeared in a large format book published by Kehrer Verlag.

Martin Usborne is a photographer based in London and alsoco-founder of Hoxton Mini Press.
