Birth, love and death. These turning points in a human life are universal and yet always and everywhere unique. In recent years, photographer and VPRO personality Lieve Blancquaert have traveled the world in search of stories about these special moments. She wanted to know how the world welcomes his children, how and why we connect and how we say goodbye. She filmed and photographed special rituals, traditions and customs and bundled the images in a much-discussed television series and the beautiful books Birth Day, Wedding Day and Last Days, of which more than 45,000 copies were sold. As a whole, Lieve Blancquaerts image reports capture the essence of what makes people human.
Blancquaert's successful trilogy is now brought together in the final piece Circle of Life, a timeless gift book that is an ode to life in all its fullness. A surprising, multi-media exhibition will be on display in Ghent's Saint Peter's Abbey this fall (20 September 2019 - 12 January 2020).
Circle of Life is an unforgettable trip around the world, seen by the sharp and deeply human gaze of a special photographer.
With beautiful images, many of which have never been published before, and with texts by Bernard Dewulf and an epilogue by Lieve Blancquaert.
