After being in Mauritius for a few weeks, we started to get very stir crazy. We knew there was a waterfall in the jungle behind the ridge where we lived. We decided to take a risk and drive up a back-road through the mountains. We figured if anyone stopped us we could claim we got lost… We definitely looked lost about 98% of the time. We arrived at where we thought the waterfall was located, but were unsure. We hid our rental car behind some palm fronds, launched the drone and then took shelter back inside the car. We found the sketchiest road to drive down where we knew no one would come and chose this as our location to sneakily drone. We flew the drone in the direction that we thought the falls were and before we knew it the magnificent Chamarel Falls revealed itself to us on our screen. At this point, seeing the waterfall through a phone screen and capturing images of it was the biggest adventure we had in a very long time. It almost felt as if we were playing a video game.

1000 Miles Out collection image

A Collection by Chelsea Mealo and Brayden Hall

1000 Miles Out is a collection of 37 1/1 images based on the shared experience of getting stuck abroad on the tiny island of Mauritius for 6 months by these two artists. A job had brought them to Mauritius early March 2020. Despite expressing concern about traveling in light of developing travel restrictions, the client urged them to go. It took three days to travel around the world from New York to the middle of the Indian Ocean. The day after arriving, they were informed that the island would be closing its airport, the only way on and off the island, for 10 days. Periodically, this 10 days turned to a month, two months and so on resulting in an unexpected six-month stay. Initially, the island was incredibly strict with a police-enforced lockdown. Trapped abroad tested the two both financially and mentally. However, the life-changing experience had a bittersweet ending as the two developed deep friendships and love for the island.
