In Pilgrimage, Antaki continues his practice of engaging strangers as subjects, inviting them to tell the story of the moment, all captured within minutes. The resulting images offer a window into a world where community and connection are paramount. In a time when international travel was severely restricted and people were unable to connect with each other in person, Antaki's work reminded us of the beauty and importance of human interaction. He highlights the individuality and uniqueness of people from different cultures, while also emphasizing the commonalities that bind us all together as members of the human family.
