The images-all shot in-camera underwater-are hauntinglybeautiful. But beyond the immediate visual impact,Brandt's work delves deeper, asking: how did we get here?What does the future hold for these communities? Andhow can we mitigate, if not reverse, the damage? Brandt'semphatic portraits bridge the often abstract concept of climatechange and are a reminder that behind every statisticabout rising sea levels, there's a tangible human story.
