Maya Kachra’s striking artwork “Who I Left Behind” adds beauty and resonance to this issue. Here she shares just one thing about the piece:

"My photography series "Who I Left Behind" explores the disconnection and loneliness that often comes with a change in perspective and belief systems as you grow apart from certain people and leave relationships behind. By physically manipulating photography prints, I alter the viewer's perception of the images and attempt to bridge my past and present understanding of the world and comment on how identity is ever-changing."
