THE PROJECT: I SPEAK IN IMAGE

"I don’t choose what I photograph, I document anything that grabs my senses and communicate it through image. This becomes a journey for me to explore through the lens and for my audience to engage their imagination and journey with me rather than be taught or told." -Alia Radman

I SPEAK IN IMAGE is a one-hundred-day digitally documented journey from Marrakech, Morocco, to Tanzania/Zanzibar, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Nepal and West Bengal, India. These destinations were chosen, in that specific order, and creates an infinity-shaped trajectory. By nature, the journey is propelled into repeated cycles; it symbolizes the launch of a new way of life, ad infinitum. 

Between August and November 2014, I SPEAK IN IMAGE is a visual narrative that featured daily digital stories of people, objects, entries/exits, food, colors, forms, art, spaces, landscapes and more. Using docuemnatry photography to capture stories using anywhere from one image to ten to portray an event, person or place. 

For an overview of the entire journey, please visit the ARCHIVE.

BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST

Alia Radman (1985) is a Yemeni-Bosnian-American photographer and digital storyteller. She has traveled extensively throughout Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa and North America. During her travels, Alia has been inspired by landscape, people, culture and cuisine. Being frustrated with words and the futility of verbal language, she turned to multi-media to portray her experiences, travels and views.

She is convinced that the most universal language is not verbal, but sensory, and to achieve a more understanding world, we should learn to communicate more through our senses than to rely only our words.

She is a graduate of the United World College of the Atlantic (UWCAC) and Wellesley College where she studied Middle Eastern Studies and Studio Art with a concentration in film. 

Alia has lived in Yemen, Wales, the United States, Vietnam and is currently based in Marrakech, Morocco. She is a regular contributor to the Wellesley Underground (http://wellesleyunderground.com/). For more information, you can also visit her site, aliaradman.com.
