"Human Negotiations" 《人间世》

"Human Negotiations is an independent, self-funded collaboration between photographer Katharina Hesse and writer Lara Day, exploring the lives of Bangkok sex workers through images and text. Leaving aside stereotypes of exploited, downtrodden Third World females coerced into a profession in which they are passive victims, the project reveals a more nuanced, open-ended world where women take center stage, and where reality’s complexities leave room for wider interpretations. The project takes the form of a book featuring photographs and short fiction (Three Shadows Press, June 2011) as well as a multimedia work including music by Ryuichi Sakamato. The book will be officially launched on June 25 at Three Shadows Photography Art Centre in Beijing to coincide with a solo exhibition."

"Human Negotiations has just moved into its crucial final week on Kickstarter, and we implore you to please make your support meaningful by offering a pledge. Pledges are needed so we can cover the printing costs of our book. No matter how modest, your contribution will help."

Please contribute via Kickstarter.

”《人间世》是一个自筹资金的独立合作项目,由摄影家卡特琳娜·黑斯、作家拉拉·戴共同合作,通过图像与文本,探索了曼谷工作者群体的生活。

《人间世》并非对性交易的新闻报道,而是个人对这个常常被误解的行业所做的诠释。该项目一反受欺压、被蹂躏的第三世界女性被迫从事称为被动牺牲品的职业这种老套成见,而是揭示了更加微妙、更加自由开放的世界,女性在其中占据着舞台中央,现实的复杂性又为更广泛的阐释留下了空间。

筹集的资金将直接用于《人间世》一书的印刷费用,该书是与中国国内最主要的当代摄影与录像艺术空间——三影堂摄影艺术中心合作出版。展览将成为一件大型多媒体作品,配以日本著名音乐人阪本龙一的音乐作品:Kickstarter。“
