TWO WORLDS by Dominic Compton


  • PHOTO BOOK CAFE 4 Leonard Circus London, England, EC2A 4DQ United Kingdom (map)

This is a photographic series by Dominic Compton, documenting a particular location along the southern coastline of Sri Lanka. His attempt to bring awareness to foreign owned businesses in a country affected by Neo-colonialism and the issues this causes towards traditions and communities. The impact this has had on locals and questioning tourists on where their money is spent and what economy they are supporting. In a world where flights cost less than trains and people travel much more often, ask yourself; do we contribute to the community or to the problem?
