‘Crossing Thresholds’ is part of a photo series titled ‘Back from School’. As Adedolapo Salako explores within and beyond the boundaries of her new found love for street photography, she often finds herself drawn to youth and the energy it comes with.
‘Back from School’ captures the moments of children returning home after school hours. It serves as a nostalgic reflection on the carefree nature of adolescence. This collection evokes memories of childhood, reminding us of the freedom we once enjoyed, devoid of responsibilities. Through these images, we journey back to our past, envisioning the innocence of our teenage years and contemplating the freedom that lies ahead in our lives and futures.
‘Crossing Threshold’ depicts teenage boys crossing from one side of the road to the other, all in a row. The title makes the image into a metaphor for the transition that comes with adolescence, when these young boys must cross from the realm of childhood and adolescence to adulthood.
