Visual Stories: Journeys Home, curated by artist Carina A. del Rosario

"Migration is a biological process; animals and humans move any length of distance for a variety of reasons. Sometimes we move because we are in search of food or sustenance. Sometimes we move to flee a place that no longer sustains us, a place that is dangerous. Sometimes we move out of curiosity. The journey itself can hold peril and pleasant discoveries. And where we end up may be a surprise too. Wherever we land, may we land gently."
