Infrastructuring Everest: 30 Years of Development and Change on the Roof of the World | Jolynna Sinanan
Mount Everest has been the pinnacle of fantasy and desire for conquest, adventure and achievement for 100 years. This exhibition showcases the uneasy relationship between development and tourism in the Khumbu (Mount Everest) region, Nepal over the past three decades. Through collaboration with high-altitude trekking and mountaineering guides, 80 images have been captured through research, tourist and smartphone photography in destinations along the trek to Everest Base Camp and on commercial mountaineering expeditions. The exhibition offers perspectives of changes to everyday life, aspirations and environmental knowledge.
