Synopsis

In Smiles from Around the World, Ingrid Marn presents a narrative of travel, learning, personal growth, and the subtle impact of globalization on the life and mind of a young person who is European by heritage and global through experience. Ingrid accomplishes that which few are able to: the bonding of prose and photograph to communicate the combination of personal and collective experience. While this work contains personal reflection, deeply enmeshed is the impact that others have had on her life, and her personal and professional growth through her encounters with peoples of the world. One also finds a subtle expression of hope for her children as for children all over the world, that some day the similarities in their collective personalities, goals and ambitions, desires and travails, will help to make this a more peaceful, less violent world.

Ingrid Marn was lucky to grow up around the world in a family that dedicated over three decades of service to the word though FAO, the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations. Her father put a Canon A1 in her hands when she was a child and taught her to photograph, which became her special language, her way of expressing herself to promote understanding and respect among different cultures. Ingrid is a world photographer. She believes we should all use our skills to make the world a better place for everyone. Smiles from Around the World tells the story of her personal journey and those who she met along the way, through her photographs.
