Marcia Lippman: Sacred Encounters East and West

These photographs invite the viewer to take part in a stunning journey of spirit and imagination. Lippmann’s eye dwells affectionately on the sensuous and lyrical, distilling time and memory through meditative attention to hidden details which transport, expand and enrapture as do the best music and poetry. Culled from years of solitary travel into largely-unmapped territory, this book stirs the soul and awakens the heart in its celebration of East and West, beauty and sexuality, ritual and ceremony, flesh and stone, life and death – the common threads in the human tapestry.
