“Like a River” by Photographer Daniel Jack Lyons
A number of pictures from “Like a River,” the upcoming photobook by anthropologist and photographer Daniel Jack Lyons. Quickly-to-be-released by Loose Joints, the mission explores notions of id, transformation, and coming-of-age for marginalized teams set in opposition to a backdrop of deep Amazonian rainforest.
Lyons’ background in social and medical anthropology initially introduced him to the Amazon, the place he labored with Casa do Rio, a community-based group that celebrates and helps the cultural lives of youngsters and younger individuals residing within the depths of the Amazon. With “Like a River,” Lyons focuses extra particularly on visualizing and empowering trans and queer communities of the area, exploring how deep indigenous traditions and trendy id politics meet in a celebratory, protected house, deep within the lush canopies and vegetation of the rainforest.
The discharge of the ebook will coincide with a joint exhibition at Les Rencontres d’Arles from July 4 until August 28, the place the mission is nominated and exhibited as a part of Prix de la Découverte Louis Roederer, and at Free Joints’ bookshop, Ensemble, from July 1 until September 2.
