In 2018, at Stuck in Plastic, we ran a photography project centered around 52 human values and emotions with the goal of exploring our inner child.
My goal wasn't necessarily to make 52 photos, but rather associate one of my existing photos with each of the values or emotions.
These are the original photos I picked for each of them and posted on social media.
