Photo by gabrielegalimbertiphoto | When I meet people on my travels, I ask the unexpected: Can I see what’s in your medicine cabinet? The project Home Pharma is the result of my curiosity. Some people are understandably reluctant; others are proud to open their doors. The medicines often can reveal who the people are: Their desires, wants, diseases. It’s very intimate. What do our medicines say about us?

From the left, Wholl-Lima Balthazan, 56, her mother, Silemoieux Charikable, 76, and her son Lozèma Astrel, 20, are seen in their house in Port au Prince, Haiti. Wholl-Lima works as a secretary for a Haitian cultural organization. She uses traditional Haitian medicine to cure herself and her loved ones—mainly using leaves that can be found in local markets or provided by a "leaf doctor."
