Into Mountains

CHF 69.00

In this book, we show traditions from the Jin Dynasty that people performed before they went to the mountains. Nowadays, such rituals can be perceived as absurd or ridiculous. But at the time, people were merely expressing humbleness and respect towards nature. This seems to have been lost in the present day. The planet is suffering and is seen merely as a resource that can be exploited as one pleases.

We hope that we can learn again to live in unison with nature, to appreciate and protect it along with all the special beings it hosts – before it is too late.

The book “Into Mountains” has won the young talent award of the Musée des beaux-arts in Le Locle (MBAL), which is awarded as part of the Triennale of Contemporary Print Art! The exhibition “Into Mountains: Wear Your Mirror,” which resulted from this book, will be on view at MBAL (Musée des beaux-arts Le Locle) from Oct. 22, 2022 to Feb. 26, 2023.
