A glimpse into the development of his practice over the last twelve years, the book "Forays, Frontiers & Flags" weaves personal images with snapshots of various aspects of the artist’s photographic research, taking the viewer on a global journey through contemporary society.
From the United States to China, Africa to Europe, Cochran’s work allows the viewer to position themselves in spaces and geographies the artist has found himself in during states of change. China’s resurgence to superpower status, Hong Kong’s fight for freedom, the migration crisis in the Mediterranean, the chilling effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, and more are shown through direct and indirect imagery. Meanwhile, accompanying interviews, archival documents and texts catalog the history of our time.
