Peter speaks to the American photographer and writer Tim Carpenter about the "existential conundrum" of being a photographer, as explored in Tim's new book-length essay titled ‘To Photograph is to Learn How to Die’, published in 2023 by The Ice Plant. Their conversation is a discussion about the photographic life and how acknowledging our own mortality as human beings helps us draw deeper meanings from a life lived in the midst of the visible. https://www.timcarpenterphotography.com/ https://www.instagram.com/timcarpenter
