Crossing The Boundary

This piece captures the Christmas Island red crab migration as more than a natural event; the journey of this unique Australian species is a fearless defiance of human boundaries. The yellow line, a symbol of order for us, is merely a path for their ancient cycle of reproduction. Against the mist and distant city lights, their collective march reminds us of the unstoppable, primal drive of life.
