The essential is visible; you just have to look closely. This book is dedicated to inner encounters.
Over 300 pages of this high-quality art print explore the fascinating world of meditation. How does an inner journey begin to take shape, manifesting as a silent communication?
In his photographic homage to the beauty and power of meditation, Axel Kirchhoff answers this question quite simply: by observing. This mindful pause is also the starting point for the encounter with the 66 protagonists, who reveal themselves, in diverse forms, with the process of their inner work.
SILENT PORTRAITS is a collection of quotes and portraits from a wide variety of protagonists. In addition to the silent yet vibrant black-and-white photographs, the protagonists also offer personal descriptions of their approaches and experiences in their inner work.
Insights into the effects of mental exercise, which emerge from conversations with the renowned author and neuroscientist Dr. Ulrich Ott from the Bender Institute of Neuroimaging (BION) in Giessen, round out the book.
