LAND OF THE LIVING: A Photo-Mythology by Peter Cunningham

Peter has been bearing witness with his camera for over 50 years. Inspired by his professional ancestors - those who invented the “photo-essay” - Peter presents Land of the Living in a form he calls “Photo-Mythology". This piece is seen through the lens of The Garden of Eden story in which Adam and Eve’s “fall” lands them in "the land of the living."

Above is a 37 minute film of this, Peter’s “magnum opus” with Peter narrating the text from quarantine in 2020.

Below is a print version of the same divided into chewable sections.
