London-based photographer Danilo Murru revisits his native Sardinia more than a quarter of a century after he “escaped”.

This photographic journey, shown as part of Deptford X art festival fringe 2025, explores Danilo’s emotional reconnection with the island.

The Furthest Point Was Home is captured as a series of spatial fragments, inscrutable moments and insignificantdetails, as well as unexpected encounters with people he met along the way.

The project avoids the tourist cliché of Sardinia as a Mediterranean holiday paradise, instead roaming the streets of Danilo's home city Cagliari and other locations across the island.

“I drove to remote and rural villages where I have never been before,” says Danilo. “I wandered for hours, barely seeing a soul, sometimes nobody at all.”
