Details
CHAUVET Arts presents "SOPO: A Journey Home," Nashville's first immersive photo experience of its kind. A 40-foot salon-style installation of over 80 photographs chronicles photojournalist Philip Holsinger's three arduous expeditions with the Tusheti shepherds.
As the first "outsider" to complete the 155-mile journey, Holsinger joined one of the world's oldest nomadic groups and their pack of wolf-like guard dogs as they guided their herds of thousands of sheep through the Caucasus mountains across the Republic of Georgia.
"SOPO: A Journey Home" affirms Holsinger's artistry to capture the conflict, beauty, and soul of the world's most volatile environments while also portraying Holsinger's challenge to articulate his personal spiritual journey.
