THE HEART OF CUBA STREET

While I was working as a night cleaner, I began taking photographs of my colleagues. I was just keeping my interest in photography alive, playing with light and composition. But I was fascinated by how beautiful they looked in the photos and how classic the photos were.

​

My colleagues became 'heroes', in the night time setting of the office building. Through this time, I found another perspective of seeing life. I realised the most remarkable people, were right in front of me, every time I press the shutter. Without make-up or special effects, they were breath-taking.

With all of that in my thoughts, I am excited to be working as the photographer for 'The Heart of Cuba Street' project, I will document the collaboration between the artists (both model and artist) and record their working process.

​

I will also work in a cinematic way to photograph moments of busy life in Cuba Street, capturing the atmosphere at different times of the day and evening. I am very excited to see the coming together of drawing and photography in the project.
