Is the use of photographic images to explore our connections, emotions and viewpoint of the world. By analyzing, reflecting and taking photographs, we can be more conscious of our relationship with others and our environment, connect with our personal symbols, and enhance creativity. We can discover positive values and new possibilities. Images invite us to be present, bring up memories and imagine new narratives.
