The cruise industry is one of the fastest growing sectors in the tourism industry. Cruise ships are increasing in size and continue to offer more and more activities and entertainment. This is surprising, because for a long while, the term ‘cruise’ has carried associations such as ‘floating retirement home’. This image is, however, changing.
‘Wenn heute Mittwoch ist, dann muss das Istanbul sein’ has been created to exhibit this change. The book is a journalistic photo series of a two-week-cruise in the Mediterranean Sea. The series is supplemented by interviews of the passengers aboard to introduce the reader to their emotional and intellectual life, and to reveal their motivations and desires for selecting this method of travel.
I additionally presented a collection of diverse souvenirs collected ashore to demonstrate the broad spectrum of locations the cruise ship visited.
