WOMEN OF RIYADH

Meeting 37 women from different generations and backgrounds living in Riyadh today was the basis for this series of portraits, which is interwoven between the city and its inhabitants. Wandering through the streets of the city, lost in the depths of the night, following the protagonists in their daily wanderings, transforming their stories into collective poems, superimposing faces, hands, abayas, gazes and mouths, the photographic compositions draw us into a dialogue with Riyadh. The fragments of images, the focus on certain phrases, the urban scenes transformed into dreams evoke not only the challenge of women, their growing success, their extraordinary, but also the tenderness and beauty of their presence. A dress blowing in the wind, a head of hair blowing in the wind, a caressing gaze, a dreamy mouth form a subjective portrait of the capital. Everyone can recognize themselves in these aspirations and longings. There's a certain osmosis between these women and the city, as if they had a secret access, as if they had their dreams.
