Summary
My personal project "The Changing Wave" has been awarded the GFX Grant Program by Fujifilm.
About "The Changing Wave"
In the coastal line of Quintana Roo, Mexico, a natural phenomenon has mutated into something unnatural since 2014, when a seaweed known as sargassum started to arrive in massive amounts to the beaches becoming a problem for the ecosystem. The project looks to tell the personal stories of people living in the village of Mahahual, exploring questions about the past, future and present, but most importantly the bond between humans and nature sharing a common space.
