Art / Photo Books
Glimpses
Glimpses is a limited-edition, hand-bound riso-printed zine featuring original cyanotype portraits by Arnold Barretto. Emerging from an accidental out-of-focus image, the series captures quiet, introspective moments reimagined through the cyanotype process on fabric before being printed on a risograph.
This edition of 75 copies reflects Barretto’s ongoing exploration of photography and bookmaking, blending analog techniques with experimental printmaking.

Ghaf (Emulsion Lift), 2023
The Ghaf Tree stands as an iconic emblem of the UAE's landscape and is a symbol of tolerance and good fortune. For centuries, this species has served as a vital resource, providing sustenance, refuge, and medicinal remedies to the local Bedouin community. Through the delicate art of emulsion lifting, I aim to highlight the profound reverence that the national tree of the UAE commands.

Fujairah Lifeboats I, 2022
During a road trip to Fujairah, I stumbled upon two isolated lifeboats placed haphazardly amidst a vast expanse of sandy terrain. The juxtaposition between these boats and the surrounding sand caught my attention. Shot on Yashica 126G camera using Pro 400H film.
