A World Away

Hunter Barnes is an extraordinary documentary photographer. His black and white portraits of cultures and communities often ignored by the mainstream are renowned for their stark and unflinching beauty. In 2006, Barnes travelled to Sri Lanka, intending to document the devastating aftermath of the 2004 tsunami. Instead, he arrived amidst rapidly increasing tensions in the civil war and a breaking down of the ceasefire signed four years previously. Barnes documented the impact of the resurgence of the war, accompanied by Hunter''s raw, handwritten diary entries from the time.
