Uprooted: Haitian Diaspora And Displacement
Uprooted: Haitian Diaspora and Displacement explores the impact of ongoing challenges faced by Haitians, particularly in the context of gang violence, financial and political instability.  Recently, over 600,000 people were displaced due to gang violence; and over 12,000 refugee camps currently exist throughout the capital.

This series portrays the raw emotions and expressions of Haitians navigating their new realities. Each portrait tells a story: a woman peering anxiously from behind a curtain, embodying the fear of being undocumented; a man grappling with the challenges of learning a new language and integrating into an unfamiliar culture.

This series sheds light on the complexities of forced migration, the daily lives of displaced Haitians while capturing and preserving the beauty and perseverance of Haitian immigrants.
