The Lines That Carry Us~
Two photographs taken years apart in two very different parts of the world. One in Myanmar, the other in Düsseldorf. What do they have in common? I didn’t see it at first, but as I was going through my archive today, I landed on the first image of a woman walking through a sunlit path…
