Highlight of Youth

Visiting funfairs, carnivals, and showgrounds is one of the many unforgettable highlights of childhood. They immerse themselves in the festivities and celebrations where colours, lights, food, drinks, and sounds are encountered throughout the event.

However, as an adult, things change, and the showgrounds manifest another side to them. They still attract you with bright colours, fun sounds, great events, and various food stalls randomly positioned throughout the grounds. But we all know it is generally about spending money and queuing up. And with those who have children, it’s about wanting to appease them by purchasing numerous show bags.

With the juxtaposition of colour along with human behaviours and attitudes, the ‘Highlight of Youth’ series attempts to document some aspects where adult life has its dull moments while socialising and having fun is still the focus that can sometimes bring out their inner child.
