Overview

Jāņi, Latvia

In this ongoing personal project shot in Latvia, Justin explores the permeability between the psychic reality of our every day, and the folk magic, ritual and mysticism of traditional pagan celebrations. Inspired by the legacy of his Latvian grandmother, Inese, and her cosmic connection to the natural world, the first leg of the project shows the pagan tradition of Jāņi (Summer solstice).
