Cultures In Transition: Spirit – Heart - Soul photography exhibit by Oliver Klink has traveled to various US States, France, Switzerland, and Argentina. The exhibition companion book has received eight awards for best photography book of 2019. ArtArk will feature over 40 images and will premiere the Trailer of “The Soul of the Burkitshi”, a short movie to be released in October 2020 at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco.
Cultures in Transition explores the changes that people go through, the subtleties that make their life evolve, their spiritual guiding light. Over 15 years, in five Asian countries (Bhutan, China, India, Mongolia, Myanmar), Oliver Klink photographed environmental portraits of the continuity between family, work, and spirituality. There was no separation, but peoples’ concerns about how ‘progress’ can create disconnection and alienation between themselves and their communities became more evident. This fluidity of life is at the core of Cultures in Transition.
