About

When nothing but earth, heaven and nature are the companions of your days and nights, then life is a wonderful journey into the immensity of true freedom.

Sanctuary Frozen in Time is an exhibition that takes us on a photographic journey throughout Mongolia with Marc Progin leading us on a pilgrimage back to the origins of life, across a vast domain, where nature is the sole landlord and men abide by its laws.

Seen through the eyes of the photographer, Marc Progin, Mongolia is a haven of peace— an asylum for nature, wildlife and human beings living a nomadic life.
A land bathed in an ocean of light, where each second is an eternity and eternity, like a fountain of youth, makes you forget your age.
A land where, in the space of the immensities of light years, as cosmic dust in the universe, you learn what is humility.
A land where nature is virgin and where life follows the cycle of the planets and seasons.
A Sanctuary Frozen in Time where nomads signed a pact to live in harmony with the natural world and settled to live of nothing other than the fruits of mother nature—a heritage that Marc Progin perpetuates through his photography.

This exhibition is an Associated Project of Le French May Arts Festival 2024.
