People were forced to flee from their homeland due to conflict, disaster or discrimination. Others sought greener pastures in foreign soil.
This series shows migrants at work. Macanese busker and Mozambique girl selling pina colada in Portugal. Spanish descendant in Central American tobacco farm. Muslim childcare teacher in NYC. Ukrainian photographer and Moldovan waiter in Athens. Long neck Karen selling handicraft in Thailand. Mali Gnawa slave descendants became soulful musicians in Khamlia. They found work and dignity.

The pandemic prompted a rethink of life and fired a desire to travel, see and understand the world. Travelling the world to open my eyes and mind, I strive to use my amateurish skill to capture the human condition through the lens.
