"The title suggests that it's time to stop and reflect - to move on and say: 'Now at least I know this much is true' - which is hard to be certain about in a 'post-truth era'."
"One of the most enduring and attractive qualities about photography, arguably, is that it's objective, no matter how beguiling the subject matter may be."
"It's difficult to take in the Earth of This Much Is True - it's almost alien-like. In the post-truth era, as Albert calls it, what can be taken at face value?"
"The viewer finds oneself constantly wondering, 'Where am I?'"
Albert Elm's photography book, This Much Is True, reflects his nomadic childhood and captures a world filled with oddities and alien-like imagery. The book invites viewers to stop and reflect on the nature of truth in a post-truth era. Elm emphasizes the objective nature of photography, presenting images that provoke questions about reality. The viewer encounters bizarre scenes, such as dentures on glasses and dolphin-shaped hedges, leading to a sense of disorientation and wonder about their surroundings.
