THE STORY OF SCARS
The Story of Scars is a photographic portrait project that explores human resilience, the unpredictability of life, and how moments beyond our control shape who we are.
These stories examine our vulnerabilities, hidden strengths, and the way scars become woven into our identity. They are reminders of what we’ve endured and how we’ve healed. The Stories of Scars aims to capture the beauty, complexity, and depth of the human experience.
If you know someone with an incredible story (within Australia) please reach out at hello@jarradseng.com
Note: this project is on-going and self funded. Support in all forms is also appreciated - reach out with any opportunities.
