This project was produced over five weeks in Australia in January 2020, where I witnessed first-hand the severity of the drought and the aftermath of some of the recent bushfires. With this series of images, I hope to contrast the visible devastation of the bushfires and the drought with scenes of a seemingly unaffected seaside summer, to offer a picture of the state of the world today; where many people are living in some form of environmental, political, social or health disaster, and others remain safe and sheltered – for now.
