Full Description
Step into the haunting chronicle of a small explorer in a strange world. As Melbourne endured an unprecedented lockdown, Australian photographer Andrew Rovenko captured his daughter, Mia, dressed in a homemade astronaut suit and helmet, navigating their familiar yet alien neighbourhood. This profoundly personal pandemic project quickly grew into a globally recognised photography series and now also a book, in which the story of the little astronaut reveals the surreal beauty found around us, as we still learn to look at the world differently, even years later.
