ZANSKAR
"In 2016, I followed the construction of the road that would open up Zanskar, a small Himalayan Buddhist kingdom, and connect it to Manali. The road would mark the end of an era for Zanskar and unimaginable upheavals for its hopeful population."

"This is a bygone era of isolated and protected Zanskar, which is recounted in these images. Looking towards the future, the Zanskar people remain strong in their culture where the sacred permeates landscapes and characters."
