“Through Their Eyes” by Roshi Aba
Through Their Eyes is a visual meditation on identity, resilience, and the layered complexity of tradition. This selection of photographs, taken across Ethiopia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Mongolia, and Central Asia, invites viewers into moments that are often unseen, yet profoundly human.
Each image offers an intimate glimpse into lives shaped by cultural heritage, societal expectation, and the quiet search for belonging. My intention was never to capture perfection, but presence, the unspoken emotions, the strength in stillness, and the stories carried in a single gaze.
