Mi País (My Country)

My mother is Chilean and my father is Welsh, and my relationship with place has always been a complicated one. Chile was so far away that I didn’t really know the country until adulthood. In 2019 I went for my first long visit and spent more than three months travelling its length, from Punta Arenas in the south to Arica on the Peruvian border. It was the first time a body of photographs came out of my travels. This was my first attempt to photograph a place I’m meant to belong to.
