The Spark ✨
I had the opportunity to access a photo archive featuring an individual who immigrated to another country as a result of the lack of employment in their home country. Following extensive interviews and discussions with this individual, I was able to develop content and produce a photographic text book which sheds light on their personal experiences and the traditions they brought with them to their new home.
