Strange in Nature


A PHOTO ESSAY

Strange in Nature: A Fictional Autobiography

Everyone has at some point in their life felt strange, unaccepted, or unacceptable. We grow up in a miasma of social anxiety, learning to hide our discomfort and conform to others’ expectations—but at what cost?
 
STRANGE IN NATURE is a photo-essay that stands as a rebuttal to our current divisive age. The recognition of every person's equality and dignity—irrespective of race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or beliefs—has never felt less assured. Yet even now, what unites us runs far deeper than what divides us. Biodiversity makes the natural world stronger; it could do the same for our society, once we learn to accept and appreciate each other’s differences.

By turns poignant and comical, STRANGE IN NATURE is meant both for parents to read to their children and for adults to read to their inner child. It will also resonate with today’s teens who are testing their inner weird against the tiny box society uses to contain them. It will be appreciated by photographers, nature lovers, and everyone who is afraid that 2020 has sucked all the beauty out of the world. It’s still here. You just have to learn how to look for it.

Everyone is strange. And that’s okay. Our strangeness is our strength, and our differences should be celebrated instead of concealed.
