Karuka's story

Welcome to Down to Earth,

 

 A photography website where all photos have been taken by me -  Karuka Uthayakumaran, a 16 year old girl who happens to have Down Syndrome.

This website showcases that despite my unique abilities, I am capable of providing joy, life, love and laughter to those that I encounter. 

 

Photography is a way to capture moments and convey emotions that words cannot express. With my unique perspective, I hope to share with you the beauty of the world through my lens.

More than just enjoying my photography talent, I hope that through presenting my work, you will reflect upon what it means to have a different lens within our society. I, along with my family, encourage you to consider more broadly, how can we as a society promote inclusion? What can we do to support those in our community who have any sort of disability? And what incredible things can we learn from them?

I hope I can teach you how to smile harder, laugh deeper and how to be more present, to take in the world around us. 

 

Thank you for visiting my site!
