Gone with the Lava by Cesar Dezfuli

This volcanic eruption on the island of La Palma in the Canary Islands started on 19 September 2021 and lasted for 85 days, destroying thousands of homes and displacing more than 10,000 people in the process. It also covered large areas with ash, which now accumulates everywhere. One of the areas most affected by the ash was the town of Las Manchas, where several meters of ash completely buried many homes. For an assignment I documented the reality of the island and the transformation of its territory one month after the end of the volcano’s eruption.
