The photos in this book were made between February 16th and 27th, 2023, across a journey from Kayseri to Adana, Adiyaman (Semsûr), Gaziantep (Dîlok/Eyntab), and Hatay 'As we crossed the valleys by 4x4 into the affected areas, we were in disbelief of the changing landscape. Often arriving at night, we were met with cities in a state of emergency, barren buildings and streets almost completely devoid of any light. Our time was filled with locating supplies from neighbouring areas due to the emptied markets as displaced residents waited for the state’s intervention. The despair and anger could be felt by survivors, volunteers and local political parties as we moved between cities.'
