Tibet — Between Earth and Sky
Tibet does not reveal itself quickly. It asks for patience, for altitude, for days spent moving slowly across a landscape so vast it redefines your sense of scale. Over multiple expeditions spanning three decades, traveling from Lhasa through western Tibet to the borders of the old Guge Kingdom, I have learned that the plateau gives its images to those who wait. These fifteen works are drawn from that long conversation with a place that remains, in the deepest sense, ungovernable by the camera.

The Sacred Mountain
Mount Kailash, 6,638 metres. Sacred in four religions, circumambulated for millennia, never climbed. The mountain stands alone in the Transhimalaya, answering to nothing.
Across the Plateau
Between the cities, Tibet is space itself. An average altitude of 4,500 metres, skies that reach down to the ground, and a silence that is not absence but presence.
