BEN AND HIS FATHER VITI, FIJI, 2023

SINK / RISE is the third chapter of The Day May Break, an ongoing global series portraying people and animals impacted by environmental degradation and destruction


This third chapter focuses on South Pacific Islanders impacted by rising oceans from climate change.


The local people in these photos, photographed underwater off the coast of the Fijian islands, are representatives of the many people whose homes, land and livelihoods will be lost in the coming decades as the water rises.


Everyone and everything was shot in-camera underwater.
