1. An Afghan woman rests in the desert
on 17 November 2023, near a camp housing people
recently deported from Pakistan, in Torkham,
Afghanistan, close to the Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
Around 490,000 refugees crossed the border in the weeks
around the Pakistan government's 1 November deadline
for the deportation of undocumented Afghans from the
country.

The IMPRESSION series came about from my dating experiences in college, noticing the different trends and styles that women wore to ‘impress’ or gain attraction. It interested me that so many women would wear binding or uncomfortable clothing, to either impress or attract others, or for their own self-esteem. Having degrees in both Sociology and Photography + Imaging, they definitely combined in this project to show my interest in how society functions, but to also show it in a visually compelling way. I hoped this series would reach women, and inspire them to question what they wear, and why they wear it.
