Migrant Birds x Schön Magazine
Colombia, known for its breathtaking nature, is home to the largest bird species diversity in the world. Inspired by these endemic birds, I wanted to craft a story that intertwines their beauty with the experience of migration to a big city like New York.
This editorial is an homage to the journey of the many Colombians and Latinos around the world who cross borders in search of a better life, carrying their hopes and dreams with them. Against the backdrop of New York’s towering structures, the vivid presence of these birds reflects how every person who migrates there brings color and life to a gray, fast-moving city.
Every person of the team who brought this to life has their own migration story. Each of us once left home in pursuit of dreams and new beginnings, and seeing everyone shine so brightly in their fields every day fills my heart with gratitude.
This is for all the dreamers who cross borders—visible or invisible—carrying their roots with them.
