LOBA 2026 Shortlist – Todd Antony: Buzkashi ⁣ ⁣ In his dramatic black and white series, the New Zealand photographer (born 1975) documents the archaic, traditional sport referred to in the title, which is still played in Tajikistan to this day. The literal translation of the Persian word, buzkashi, is “goat pulling”; and the game centres around a fight over the headless corpse of a goat. The sport originated amongst the nomadic equestrian cultures of Central Asia, and to this day strength and horsemanship remain defining characteristics of the players involved. ⁣ ⁣ Learn more via the link in bio.⁣ ⁣ 📷: toddantonyphoto⁣ ⁣ #Leica #LeicaCamera #🔴📷 #LOBA2026
