Modern muse series

My Modern Ethiopian Muse series explores the identity of the modern Ethiopian woman and her experience with culture, religion, and patriarchal traditions.

I want to capture the modern woman's portrait as she is to reveal who she is, tell the world how she wants to be treated, and express her true self without any fear or hesitation.

children & thier toys

 In my Children And Their Toys series, I am documenting children with their toys that they make and play with, how they’ve been passed down, and why children are fascinated by them in the 21st century. My goal with this series is to document self-made children’s toys around the world. I want to preserve the toys that keeps our past and modern world cohesive.
