In December 2015—with support provided by the UTSOA Travel Scholarship program—Vishal Joshi (MSHP 2016) travelled to Nepal, and neighboring Bhutan, to assist with documentation and rebuilding efforts following the devastating Gorkha earthquake that struck Nepal in April 2015. The images on exhibit are a small subset of the nearly 2,100 photographs he took during his eighteen-day research trip and represent a portion of his image donation received by the school’s Visual Resources Collection.

A portion of this exhibition is on view in Battle Hall, on the ground floor adjacent CAAD.
