The world is full of natural and artificial wonders that are beautiful and colorful. Every color people see is actually inside their head … and the stimulus of color, of course, is light. As light pours down on us from the sun, or from a light source in our home, objects and surfaces absorb some wavelengths of light and reflect others.

Let's face it: being an adult can feel like a bit of a disappointment compared to what we pictured the future would be like when we were kids. The burden of adult responsibilities and the restrictions imposed by our realities can make being a grown-up downright unappealing compared to the freedom we imagined we'd have.

‘Going Home’ captivates with a vivid blend of poetry, photographs, and illustrations, exploring the spectrum of adult disillusionment while celebrating the beauty of family, love, and dreams through a reflective and colorful lens.
