Description
Donavan Wylie Outposts: Kandahar Province presents a unique perspective on modern conflict through the photographs of Forward Operating Bases in Afghanistan. Constructed between 2006 and 2011, these outposts were designed to provide a protective visual architecture for military personnel serving alongside infantry and artillery. The resulting images are a thought-provoking examination of the intersection of past and present. Built on natural promontories with multiple lines of sight, these outposts reflect a strategic approach to defensive locations established during earlier conflicts. Wylie's photographs capture the intricate relationships between these structures and their surroundings, revealing a complex history that continues to unfold in the region. Made in collaboration with the Imperial War Museum in London and supported by the Bradford Fellowship in Photography, this work offers a nuanced understanding of the architecture of modern conflict. With 64 pages of high-quality photography, Outposts: Kandahar Province provides a valuable insight into the experiences of those who have served in Afghanistan.
