*** EXHIBITION "eastward bound" ***
Travelling probably never was as easy as it is nowadays. Journeys, however, often are simply transfers between two spots on the planet, with no relation to the places in between.
Eastward bound illustrates a trip which chooses to linger on the way.
A long stroll eastward, where the route travelled becomes as important as the destination - if not more – because of all the changes in the environment which unfold along the way.
Welcome everyone!
Exhibition from the 16-12-2010 to the 31-01-2011 (on appointment)
Vernissage on the 16 & 17-12-2010 from 17h30 to 21h30

Tadjikistan - Farewell party
Hospitality towards the traveler is a must in Central Asia. Loud music, tasty food and plentiful vodka.
One more night to remember...

Tadjikistan - Border crossing
North West Tadjikistan and Fergana Valley in Uzbekistan look very much the same. Still, the border is closed to most people.
The Oxus river - Amu Darya - steadily flows through the region, linking the mountains to the Aral Sea.

Uzbekistan - From the Aivan
Cut off from the busy streets, mosques often have an Aivan, lofty and peaceful “outdoor room” looking out to the Hauz (pool) or the orchard.
Uzbekistan - A breath of cool air
Taking a break from the hot days in the valley, 200km south of Samarkand : shepherds’ paradise in the mountains.
