ABOUT THE PROJECT
In late 2020 Kua sent five film cameras to coffee farmers on Mount Elgon. At the same time, cameras were sent out to Kua coffee drinkers in Sydney, drinking the coffee that was grown by those same farmers.
The CameraSwap is a project about connection. Kua hands the camera over, asking coffee farmers and coffee drinkers to tell their own stories. The captions below each image are notes made by CameraSwap participants when taking their photos.
