Gunung: volcanoes of Indonesia.
“In Indonesia life is organised around volcanoes. Millions of people live on their flanks and more than a hundred and twenty craters are considered active. For an Indonesian the word gunung is a generic term that covers both mountains and volcanoes; it resonates like the name of a god to whom one must submit. Temples and natural parks also use that name, which rumbles like a threat. On the archipelago, in Java, Bali and Lombok, I went to see how life is organised on the slopes of these active craters.”
