In my work I am inspired by the notion of emotional realism: Instead of capturing an ‘accurate’ imprint of reality I am more concerned about how reality feels like. I aspire to capture a certain poetic beat that resonates with me in my environment and translate it visually.
I received my B.A. of Human Geography at Kings College London and my M.A. of Photography and Image-Making at Paris College of Art. I was always fascinated how communities are bound together and reflect how this is mirrored on an individual level, embedded within a societal backbone. In my work I want to weave memories, emotions of different cultures, together in short films- blending documentary, music and visual script to garner empathy for the other. Currently I am happy to creatively pursue my vision while working in the team of Beyond Borders Media.
