Cave Canem by Esra Ozgurooglu - Ancient Latin Dog Collar for Pet Protection | Perfect for Dog Training, Historical Reenactments & Unique Gifts

Cave Canem or “Beware of the Dog.” Is this warning intended to protect the reader or the dog dozing under the car so that we don’t step on its tail?

Esra Özgüroğlu photographs a dark and fragile world in Balat. The mysterious tensions of everyday life find a place in the book along with tender and peaceful moments.

Cramped buildings, laundry flapping in the wind, ominous graffiti, moldy sofas, afternoon naps in the park, cryptic expressions on faces, children’s games whose rules we can’t even guess… Cave Canccem invites the reader to get lost in this dark and obscured world.
