Mi Pais (My Country)
A child of two places, his mother Chilean and his father Welsh, Santiago’s relationship with place has always been a complicated one. Separated by immense distance, he never managed to build a relationship with Chile until adulthood. In the year 2019, he flew over for his first extended visit, spending over three months travelling the length of Chile, from Punta Arenas in the South, to Arica, bordering with Peru. This was the first time in his life in which a series of photographs was developed from his travels, leading him to create this project, as an ode to Chile.
