THOSE LEFT BEHIND
It is a failure for humanity if anyone is left behind. It is a failure for the civilized world on solidarity, if people fleeing from wars, violence or persecution are left without help on the borders because of their color, ethnicity, or country of origin.
In September 2019, she started her photography and photojournalism training at Cenjor - Protocol Training Center for Journalists.
Since then, her photography has been a tool for personal expression and construction of narratives giving each character its own energy and power. Only after sinking all her senses into the story, does she try to conceive and explore the images.
She believes in photography as a means of consciousness and connection.
This site shows a small selection of hundreds of photographs she took over the course of her year and half career. She consistently worked across genres, encompassing portrait, photojournalism, but, above all, people and their emotions.
