THE FOOD PROJECT
Oct 26 - Nov 4 I travelled around Damascus to the Mountain of Flowers and the Village of Flowers. Yet, the flowers I saw were not those common to the eye. The portraits I took of the people I met are filled with strong women, who blossom in the dryest and rockiest of places. Here I share with you some of these portraits. I present to you, the true flowers of Syria.
To Mr. Engelsman and the team at Eosta in the Netherlands, to Akis, Shu and the team at Gastronaut, to Nour and the team at Syrian Fingerprints, the families I got to meet, my family in Syria and the readers who take part of these stories,
Thank you,
Selina Hami
