Problem to Solve
The stories, traditions, and resilience of the Tigrayan people are often underrepresented or misunderstood in broader cultural narratives. There was a need to share these experiences and preserve them for future generations both within the community and beyond.
Solution
This coffee table book was created to document and celebrate the strength and courage of Tigrayan culture through personal and cultural storytelling. By combining traditional dance, cultural dress, and glimpses of family and ancestral life captured through both film and digital photography the book serves as a visual archive. It provides a space for awareness, reflection, and comfort, allowing readers to connect with Tigray’s heritage and spirit.
