Close to the Heart
This is a publication of photographs which showcase the value held in possessions treasured by five young immigrants as they settled in to NewZealand.
Accompanied by different real-life stories, each person has their own story to tell of the fondest memories about their families or friends, signified by ordinary impermanent objects from daily life.
Through common themes, on value,and love, the photographs aim to convey the emotion and bond each owner has with their treasured possession. The idea of disconnection and discomfort of being alone lead to the appreciation of valuing each and every loved ones that they were attached to.
