In the words of the photographer Ola Wilk, “When I travel with Jeunesse we always have the intention of creating images using our surroundings to draw inspiration.” This statement embodies the essence of the photo series set in the evocative streets of Havana, Cuba, featuring the model Jeunesse Awad. Navigating the maze-like alleyways and centuries-old facades, the duo immerses themselves in the city’s timeless aura, harnessing its warm hues and distinct textures.
The series channels a potent sense of nostalgia, echoing the stories whispered by the worn bricks and cobblestones underfoot. It takes the viewer on a journey, not just through the meandering lanes of Havana, but also through the memories and history imbued in its very fabric. The images unravel the narrative of a woman whose life resonates with the timelessness of her surroundings.
