Brian Sokol — A photographer who reveals the life of refugee

While I was completing the research blog for photography, the first impression to Brian Sokol’s work — ‘The Most Important Thing’, by asking the refugee what will you bring if you now need to flee to another country? This group of people are the refugee’s holding their ‘most important thing’ that they are going to take with them.

With black background which made the subject stood out more, is an old man sitting on the blanket holding two empty drink bottles in each of his hand. His white shirt wrinkled up which seemed very old with few blots on it. The intense black eyes were smiling at the camera, they are more like the focal point of these photograph to me. His hands have injured with some paint on the fingers and mud inside his nails, he must be working to survive under this challenging condition. The two plastic bottles could not be see through because they were plastered with mud, and there was no water in both of them.
