The New World

With culture and community at its core, a photograph usually denotes the existing world and with this series of photographs, “The New World” in production since 2014,  the artist wanted to create a new dimension through which a photograph could be the beginning of a new world. A world of endless possibilities where the viewers will feel enraptured and compelled to become passionate co-creators with him. This body of work, The New World, first started as a way to explore how we live.
