    15. Harri Pälviranta: Post-Documentary, Aftermath Photography and Dark Tourism
    Feb 27 2024

    Peter joins the Helsinki-based photographer and researcher Harri Pälviranta at his studio to discuss the various themes behind his artistic practice, much of which has been dedicated to making visible structures of violence and issues of masculinity. His recent photobook titled Wall Tourist, published by Kult Books in 2022, contains a series of self-critical portraits exposed against the international boundaries of state power that question the role of the travelling photographer in the creation of the documentary image.

    14. Tim Carpenter: To Photograph is to Learn How to Die
    Nov 7 2023

    Peter speaks to the American photographer and writer Tim Carpenter about the "existential conundrum" of being a photographer, as explored in Tim's new book-length essay titled ‘To Photograph is to Learn How to Die’, published in 2023 by The Ice Plant. Their conversation is a discussion about the photographic life and how acknowledging our own mortality as human beings helps us draw deeper meanings from a life lived in the midst of the visible.
