His practice explores Afro-Caribbean and diasporic influences, depicting communities as modern-day liminal beings navigating identity, gender, masculinity, environment and memory. His work offers an authentic nuanced vision of the intricacies of being in these continued transitional states—socially, psychologically, and culturally. Junior supports the local communities he lives and works in, with 15% of profits going back to the communities he photographs in. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Junior Sealy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47869829480613,"sku":null,"price":850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/7713\/7709\/files\/Up_and_Forward.jpg?v=1780255773","url":"https:\/\/www.lesiles.com\/products\/up-and-forward","provider":"LES ÎLES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
