Worshippers arrive at India’s Siddhi Vinayak temple carrying heartfelt wishes and offerings of fragrant flowers. Once blessed, these flowers adorn the temple for a moment in time before being placed in the river to make space for fresh offerings. This project has been created in collaboration with a fair trade, socially conscious non-profit that teaches, employs and empowers locals to gather and craft used blooms into truly unique pieces to cherish for all time.
