About The Artwork

Photograph no.#072 from the "Timor Runguranga" photobook (http://www.blurb.com/b/7181097-timor-runguranga). This image portrays a Lian Na'in from Viqueque. These scarce men play a fundamental role in keeping Timorese traditions alive. In a oral history based society, these guardians (na'in) of the word (lian) are entitled to not only pass on the stories to further generations but also act as wise mediators when problems occur between members of their community.
