Faces of Specht, Germany 2024
Last summer, I traveled to Germany for an artist getaway to reconnect with my creativity and better understand who I am as an artist. I’m excited to share Faces of Specht, a portrait series featuring friends who call Spechthausen home and who supported me throughout my time there.
Spechthausen is a renovated paper factory turned artist community, full of free-spirited people I was lucky to be surrounded by. This project is both a tribute to the community that helped me heal and a defining moment in my journey as a photojournalist.
