Balance in Absence
By Kieran Liggins
148mm x 210mm / 40 pages / Uncoated 170gsm
Saddle stitched / gold thermographic ink dust Jacket
published 2020
(packed in biodegradable wallet)
I saw an opportunity to see physical change in the world around me. I saw an opportunity to integrate myself within a different culture, to be part of a community that is not my own.
I searched in the act of photographing and the language of images to translate something about my experience, something personal, something concrete, something I could build and share.
I was drawn to a notion that the people and the place were closely integrated and it guided me as I developed the photographs for this project
I wanted to declaim my obsession with building atmosphere and creating a fabricated space out of an existing one. however being in this new environment, surrounded by the rich textures and rhythms of rural Nepal, allowed me to document rather than create.
