Sanne Peper's project about the Deep South, a highly complex cultural region of the United States culminates in the publication of 'Slowtime, Alabama & The Beautiful Sadness', a fairytale-like exploration of good and evil, the human condition, an alt-right chipmunk who goes by the name of Jeremiah Day, and ultimately the fear of the Other. Photographs comprise half of the book, but Peper also writes about things she experienced and the tales people told her. She fabricates a very long short story in which fiction and non-fiction intertwine.
