UNEARTHING STORIES FROM THE CORE

Landscapes (Naltar, Gilgit-Baltistan): A Meditation

2023

work in progress


villages on the mountain slopes

a glacier burst
and the mountain fell
rocks tumbling down
splitting into pieces
submerging the lake
tearing down the forest

Naltar, site of
majestic beauty
and ecological devastation

vernacular architecture
villages on the mountain slopes

shelters for the livestock
lakes of Naltar
rubble of rocks and fallen trees
