India has the largest rail network in the world with tracks reaching into the most far-flung corners and more than 8 billion passengers every year. This Workshop sets out to portray the diversity of people travelling by rail. Thereby developing a sensitivity for the people and the circumstances of their travel. The huge multiplicity of Indian society finds its counterpart in the classes of train coaches. The project aims to transcend those classes by documenting travellers from all backgrounds and all ticket classes. The Workshop will culminate in a showcase/exhibition.
Claudius Schulze
Photographer & Researcher
Having travelled and worked in over fifty countries, his interest is in humanity’s deficits and the global changes of the Anthropocene. His book Socotra is a visual journey to the idea of islands – strange and magical – and the colonialist tradition of travel. It earned him an invitation to become an Associate with the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain and a nomination for the World Press Photo’s master class.
Using large format landscape photography, Claudius is currently working to investigate the picturesque nature of natural catastrophes and the threat of climate change.
Claudius’ work has appeared in numerous international publications including Geo, Stern, Der Spiegel, National Geographic Traveler, Smithsonian Magazine, GQ, NEON, and The Independent. His photographs have been
