Day 66: Alberta Khoury

Australia

I was inspired by the influential people in Ger’s life and his journey. I was captivated by his vivid descriptions of the different personalities and values of his family, friends and loved ones. I wanted to explore the idea of human connection, where we can treasure and develop our relationships with each other in different stages of life.
