Photographic series Women are not afraid,
Since 2019
"Women are not afraid" is a photographic series born in Paris in September 2019.
It consists of several hundred individual portraits and around sixty group photos.
Through this work, I am expressing, with and through the women in the photos, the reappropriation of public spaces by women.
I started the first portraits with friends, and then I started receiving messages via social networks from women who wanted to include their portraits in the photographic series.
Women are not afraid sessions were organised in Paris, Ivry-sur-Seine, Vitry-sur-Seine, Brussels, Lyon, Toulouse, Annecy, Nantes, Cardiff and Glasgow.
Discover behind the scenes of the photographic sessions:
I'm producing the Women are not afraid photo series to give visibility to women who are legitimately taking over public spaces.
I present the strong, determined faces and gazes of these women, who brave danger to live their freedom of movement.
