the julie project

A photography project by Darcy Padilla. It spans 18 years of a woman named Julie's life through 'multiple homes, AIDS, drug abuse, abusive relationships, poverty, births, deaths, loss and reunion.'


I came across this somehow and started just scanning through it. Somewhere in there I got hooked, read it to the end, and it made me cry. Resist the urge to skip ahead- every photo speaks volumes.

The most confronting, haunting and thought-provoking thing I've seen in a while.
Have a look if you've got some quiet time alone.
