About the event
In April 2019, Spanish artist Javier Solana travelled to Iran to walk alongside a nomadic family during their seasonal migration through the Zagros Mountains. The result is Chasing Nomads, a striking photobook that blends prose poetry and photography, Spanish and English, to relate his trip.
With 34 poetic texts and 32 evocative photographs, this bold work challenges the conventions of the travel book and invites us to reflect on the meaning of home, movement, and belonging.
