Poverty
A condition characterized by severe deprivation of basic human needs, including food, safe drinking water, sanitation, health, shelter, education, and information.
My goal is to raise awareness of these issues and to devise solutions that will produce meaningful results moving forward.
Conversations That Matter
"Once, when I didn't have anything tangible to offer, I gave my time to this man. Our shared moments were deeply emotional, leading to tears. He revealed the hardships he had endured, and I listened as if he were a dear friend of mine. We ended our conversation with a heartfelt hug, a gesture to show him that people still genuinely care."
Looking Out For Help
"In this moving monochromatic portrait, I captured an elderly man whose weathered features and attire spoke to me of a life marked by hardships and poverty. Behind his white-framed sunglasses, his eyes seemed to be searching for a hint of compassion and assistance amidst an often indifferent world."
Defiance Amidst Boundaries
“In this evocative monochrome shot from my collection, I captured a lone figure standing defiantly next to a "DO NOT ENTER" sign. Wearing a well-worn jacket and jeans adorned with various patches, the individual's posture leans slightly, holding what appears to be a slender object or makeshift instrument. I was struck by the bleakness of the landscape, with its dormant grass and a singular, leafless tree. For me, the stark sign symbolized societal barriers or unspoken boundaries. The scene's scattered debris and the distant fence further underscored a sense of isolation, emphasizing themes of resilience amid adversity.”
