## Resource

In this episode of The Truth In The Art, the guest is Omri D. Cohen! Who is Omri D. Cohen: Author of Questions to Humanity — a collection born from five months backpacking South America — Omri has spent six years asking one question to 700 people across 50+ nationalities, documenting stories and street/landscape photography that reached millions. Omri D. Cohen talks about his journey leaving home to backpack South America, the process of gathering perspectives for his book Questions to Humanity, building a video series from those encounters, and how storytelling and photography can foster curiosity and connection across cultures. We also dig into the logistics of long-form travel projects, publishing the book, and bringing strangers’ wisdom into public conversation. His aim throughout: to inspire curiosity, celebrate diverse voices, and create moments of belonging through questions and stories.
