My black and white street photography in Ethiopia focuses on the people whose lives and expressions tell the stories of their communities. Stripped of color, each image emphasizes emotion, gesture, and the subtle details that reveal character and resilience. I was drawn to candid moments — shared glances, daily routines, and fleeting interactions that capture the essence of everyday life. The contrasts of light and shadow lend a timeless quality, turning ordinary scenes into intimate visual narratives. Through these photographs, I aim to celebrate the humanity, warmth, and spirit of the people I encountered during my 6 months stay abroad.
