A long trip in Cambodia, in the footsteps of the Medicins Sans Frontiers volunteers, working in the decaying hospitals of a country devastated by thirty years of war and by Pol Pot’s atrocious regime. The exhibition features 49 black and white photographs of terrifying lucidity; images populated with distant ghosts who speak a universally comprehensible language. Bodies mutilated by land mines, prostitutes wrapped in darkness, Aids victims who seem to have emerged from a nightmare, children with morbid, grief-stricken eyes.
