Fran Meckler, award-winning documentary photographer and Bay Area resident, takes us on a journey in Fading Traditions: Papua New Guinea in Color, giving us a taste of the country’s sprawling beauty and deeply entrenched traditions. “The land of the unexpected,” Papua New Guinea is a country where few tourists journey and where long-held traditions have been preserved. Through Meckler’s work, viewers will have the chance to explore this largely uncharted land and gain a broader perspective of life in this corner of the world.
