Where it came from
Igorot, published by Triltsch in 1986, is a specialized photographic study by Norbert Kohnen that documents the lives and traditional practices of the Igorot people in the mountainous regions of the Philippines. Produced during a period of renewed academic and artistic interest in indigenous cultures of Southeast Asia, the work serves as a visual ethnography, capturing the customs, landscape, and daily realities of the Cordillera people through a distinct documentary lens.
Kohnen's approach to this volume prioritizes an empathetic, observational perspective, focusing on the preservation of cultural nuances during a time of modernization. The design of the book emphasizes the raw, intimate nature of his photography, utilizing high-quality printing to convey the textures of the subjects' environments. Upon its release, it was regarded by scholars and enthusiasts of regional history as a valuable, if niche, contribution to the documentation of Philippine tribal life, reflecting both the aesthetic sensibilities of 1980s documentary photography and a sincere commitment to cultural storytelling.
