A JOURNEY TO
UNDERSTANDING
SEVEN YEARS WITH AN ALEVI VILLAGE
A Journey to Understanding is a 120 page hardcover photography book with over 150 images that aims to tell the story of the daily lives of a historical Turkish Alevi village.
The photography in this book explores the wide range of meanings of common humanity and how we are all similar but yet different at the same time. A journey of exploration of life and understanding through photography.
Over years, I repeatedly returned to this very special and unique place, following the people, life and customs of this village.
Thank you to those who made this project possible!
