Ever since I was little, I’ve been fascinated by the landscape. How it’s formed, why there are hills in some places and valleys in others, solid rock in some places and sand in others. And I remember playing a game as a child where I would stand in a spot where no one had ever, ever stood before me. That’s why I was especially drawn to steep hills and slopes. I’m glad I can devote my entire life to what I love. I’m still fascinated by the landscape and its interaction with people. The logical outcome is that I’m drawn to places where the landscape is now devoid of people but still carries the genius loci of the past. And that’s exactly what Central Asia is.
