Photography School

This video tells the story of a photography school where I taught photography to women from Afghanistan, Iran, Kurdistan, and Syria. It documents a shared learning space built around images, dialogue, and trust, where photography became both a technical tool and a way to express identity, presence, and personal vision.

Rather than focusing on results, the video reflects the process: learning how to look, how to frame, how to tell a story through images, and how to use photography as a language. In a context shaped by displacement, borders, and cultural pressure, the classroom became a place where curiosity, creativity, and authorship could exist freely.

This is not a showcase of photographs, but a testimony of teaching and exchange. A reminder that photography can be a means of empowerment when knowledge is shared, and when images are created from within, not taken from the outside.
