Biography
I am a photographer, a poet, a writer and a researcher. I was born in France to a Colombian mother and Iranian father. My cultural identities have shaped the choices I have made in life.
I have worked as a researcher for NGOs and social justice activists for a decade. My work revolved around recovering truth and memory to rebuild post-war and post-conflict societies. I have also researched narratives that can support human rights and democratic values.
In my photography, I document how cultural heritages, family stories, traditions as well as life events shape who we are. I do this through portraits, documentary photography and other media forms of storytelling such as audio, video and old photo archiving.
