My sojourn in Auroville, the Indian utopia, led to "Reflections of a Saudi Quarantined in India's Utopia". Quarantined on a cashew farm with eight global strangers, I navigated this novel reality through my lens, creating a photographic essay on our shared quarantine life. This work, published in Sekka Magazine 2020, explores the profound influence of the environment on personal experiences.
