Stipe Barić
a harbor town on the Dalmatian Coast, Croatia
Stipe Barić has spent his entire life amidst the salty breeze and mechanical grind of a Dalmatian harbor. By day, he revives the engines that keep the town's fishermen at sea. By night, he turns his attention to a peculiar collection of shoes—each belonging to a departed family member, each a tangible memory. His music, too, emerges from this intimate dance with time, space, and memory.
