Journeys
Photographic and written records organized by a specific trip or journey.
-
From a morning stroll around the neighbourhood to the forest and suspension bridge of Lynn Canyon, then on to a shopping centre and residential streets in West Vancouver—a glimpse of the city’s rhythms between nature and everyday urban life.
-
Flying in from Toronto, I explored Granville Island, Stanley Park, and the Vancouver Public Library before ending my first glimpse of the city with a sunset at Spanish Banks.
-
From the West Sea Barrage and a model cooperative farm to the Pyongyang Metro and the Children’s Palace, we spent the day touring North Korea’s proudest achievements—an exercise in “re-education” that ultimately prompted fresh thoughts about propaganda, strength, and confidence.
-
Down Reunification Highway to Panmunjom, we moved between memories of war, rural hardship, and the spectacle of the city—never quite sure what was real and what had been carefully staged.
-
Running out into the streets of Pyongyang to the cheers of nearly 100,000 spectators, I photographed as I went and met local residents at close range. The marathon brought out smiles and quietly narrowed the distance between us.
-
From Air Koryo and rigorous border checks to our first glimpse of Pyongyang, modern architecture, revolutionary symbols, and brief power cuts set a dreamlike opening to this journey into the unknown.
-
I had come to photograph the labor of a brickyard, but while waiting for the right light, I found myself playing hide-and-seek with a group of children through the lens—and the focus shifted from bricks to trust and connection.
-
At a grain-drying yard outside Dhaka, I photograph village children living alongside their mothers. Their happiness amid poverty also makes me reflect on the boundaries of photographing and portraying children.
-
In the small workshops around a shipyard, the widespread reality of child labour reveals a dilemma that defies easy judgment—caught between family survival, lack of schooling, and the limited choices life affords.
-
From railway stations to workplaces, these photographs capture Bangladeshis resting wherever they can—and look beyond mere curiosity to seek the dignity of working people amid poverty.
