SWITI SRANAN
This ongoing long-term project is an hommage to the people of Suriname and their "Switi Kondre" (beautiful country), that's currently in a deep recession. "Switi" is the " Sranan" (Surinam) word used to describe all things sweet, delicious nice, pleasant beautiful and joyful in life. I focused on the "Switi" side of Surinam life, with Surinamese people living their "Don't worry, enjoy life!" ethos, although the International Monetary Fund (IMF) says the economic outlook for Suriname remains challenging.
