Each sunrise starts a new story. Every story has its own emotions, its light that needs to be captured. I traveled to Mongolia to capture those stories that were left for me by my ancestors. To find myself I went far north, above the mountains, below the clouds. Finding the people that living with their heritages. Finding places that accept them and nurture them. I captured the relationship between people and land, but in each photograph I take, the line is blurred. I started to see them as one. There was no line between them, there were only stories, the stories that needs to be told. This time I will be telling those stories, and this is my Mongolia.

The horse symbolizes strength, while the child symbolizes innocence and purity. Together, they represent hope and possibilities for the future. The moment when the child first meets his horse, and the moment when their lives become intertwined is a moment of hope. It's when the world is still open with endless possibilities.
