Project statement: 

This collection is part of a long term personal project called The Longing Of The Stranger Whose Path Has Been Broken. In this project I reconnect to my roots and explore the process of finding and seeking the meaning of belonging cited through the Bedouin community of St. Catherine in South Sinai, Egypt. This is a journey to attempt to understand the layers of an identity and the interconnectedness between people and land which defines the notion of belonging.
