Holes:
Looting in Photos is
an effort to bring together many images of looted archaeological sites and
looted artifacts to more effectively present what our destroyed human past
actually looks like. By displaying both the individual artifacts/sites
alongside the repetition of countless holes, dug up bodies, and defaced stone,
I hope to provide a different kind of resource for learning about looting, as
well as a more meaningful comprehension of the overwhelming global scale.
The kicker in
this whole project is that I would like it to be a sort of collaborative,
crowd-sourced deal. There are many photographers, journalists, and
archaeologists who document the looted sites they see; it would be amazing to
bring them all together in one place as a kind of testimony to what is
happening to our human past for a global market.
If you have any
photos of looted sites or artifacts, submit them! Remember to have the name of
the photographer, a caption including where it’s from, and website or source
from where the photo came.
