Witness brings together photographs by Kashmiri photojournalists, taken between 1986 and 2016, years when photography in Kashmir came into its own. The work produced in these decades of tumult was a noticeable break with the past. For if there was a formal practice of photography prior to this, it was dominated by Kashmir’s landscape, and photographs were seen as an adjunct to the extensive apparatus of tourism, and before that, of colonialism. Kashmiris themselves were invisible in these pictures. This is precisely the tradition that has been upended by a new generation of photographers.
