The Trans Asia Photography Review seeks articles and projects relating to the theme of “Voyages” for possible publication in our spring 2018 issue. The term “voyages” here includes the voluntary and involuntary movement of individuals and groups, as well as the movement of photographic ideas and technologies from one city, region or nation in Asia to another. How and why do people, ideas and photographic technologies move about, and what are the aftereffects of these voyages?
