The Rocket Girl Chronicles Format: Hardback

A true personal story: Heartwarming father-daughter project that began as one family's response to the world in crisis.

Step into the haunting chronicle of a small explorer in a strange world. As Melbourne endured an unprecedented lockdown, Australian photographer Andrew Rovenko captured his daughter, Mia, dressed in a homemade astronaut suit and helmet, navigating their familiar yet alien neighborhood. This profoundly personal pandemic project quickly grew into a globally recognized photography series and now also a book, in which the story of the little astronaut reveals the surreal beauty found around us, as we still learn to look at the world differently, even years later.

Andrew Rovenko is an Australian photographer with Ukrainian roots. In 2021, he was named Australian Photographer of the Year.
