Myanmar
A Patchwork of Family Farms
In Myanmar, agricultural life unfolds in small, interwoven plots shaped by family labor and seasonal rhythms. Fields are divided by narrow paths and irrigation channels, forming a patchwork that mirrors the interdependence of those who tend it.
I photographed across rural farming communities during a period of agricultural transition, working in the context of broader efforts to support productivity and resilience. What drew my attention, however, was not yield or output, but the gestures that hold daily work together: hands sorting seeds, bodies bent in shared harvest, tools passed between generations.
The landscape is neither idyllic nor dramatic. It is steady. Labor is distributed across families and time. What emerges repeatedly in these photographs is proximity — between land and body, between task and repetition, between individual effort and collective continuity.
These images are drawn from sustained field engagement and are being revisited and refined as part of an evolving long-form series.
