Tamarin Beach quickly became one of our favourite beaches on the island. Since we were in Mauritius for six months we went here for countless sunrises and sunsets, each visit rewarding us with different conditions. On this day, we were shooting with our friend Tania and captured this image of her walking towards what our local friends called, “The Matterhorn of Mauritius.” Chelsea decided to name the mountain “The Sorting Hat” because it looks like it’s from Harry Potter.
Edition: 1/1
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.
