INFO

While Bosnia & Herzegovina is gaining a reputation as an unexplored gem of Europe, it’s still tied to mental associations of war. Nearly 30 years after the Bosnian War ended in 1995, echoes of the disastrous conflict still haunt the country’s land— especially its international image. Through photography, writing and poetry, New Metonyms is a book that aims to change this image. It presents a new set of contemporary landmarks, monuments and emblems that have no association to its wars.

The book was created together with international photographer, Shantanu Starick and released independently with a limited run of 500 copies.
