Elisa Caldana: The Falcon of Karachi - Paperback

by Elisa Caldana (Artist), Salman Alì (Text by (Art/Photo Books)), Fahim Amir (Text by (Art/Photo Books))

In an appeal to humanity, Caldana creates a imaginative visual narrative of an endangered falcon species

Working across film, photography and installation, Elisa Caldana (born 1986) relates the story of the Laggar falcon, a species native to South Asia that is slowly dying out. In structuring her work as a family saga, Caldana draws attention to its right to life, regardless of its utility to humans.
