Imaging Peace explores how photography can move beyond documenting conflict to actively shaping peace. Drawing on projects from six countries dealing with legacies of war and ongoing violence and division, Tiffany Fairey examines how local photographers and communities are using the medium to resist violence, foster healing and reimagine peace. From Colombia and Rwanda to Nepal and Northern Ireland, these local image-makers reveal how visual practices can nurture agency and plural visions of just peace.
Expanding the emerging field of peace photography, Fairey develops a nuanced ethical and methodological framework for using photography intentionally as a tool of dialogue and transformation. Imaging Peace is grounded in collaborative research that interweaves theory and practice and, featuring over 75 photographs, it invites readers to rethink what photography can do – and what peace might look like.
