Abstract
Red Wind, representing a smiling mother carrying her sleeping baby in the backstreets of Jodhpur (Rajasthan, India), is part of "Boundaries: A Stranger's Journey across Nepal and India (2018-2019)" - a documentary photography project interpreting the notion of boundaries through the face-to-face encounter between the local and the stranger, traveling across Nepal and India.
The photographic series focuses on the construction of the face as a “widow, orphan, or stranger” as discussed by French philosopher Emmanuel Lévinas in Totality and Infinity: An Essay on Exteriority (1961).
