#sponsored: Xavier Goins’ “Built of Jade” has become a meditation on time, memory, and loss. He began photographing asylum-seekers who arrived at San Francisco’s Angel Island up until 1940, but many of them were no longer living. The series is rich with poignancy. “Intimacy was a very important element to the photographs in this project,” Goins says. He began each session by putting the camera down for an hour to hear their stories.⁠ ⁠ For a chance to be featured in PDN's Instagram feed, post your own photograph and use the hashtag #MyFujifilmLegacy.⁠ ⁠ #TheLegacyProject #CreateForever #photography #photographer #Fujifilm⁠ ⁠ Photo © Xavier Goins | Don Lee, 2016 Born in Ha Bin, KaiPong, Canton, China, in 1927, Don was detained at the Immigration Station for twenty eight days in 1939 at the age of 11.
