Exhibition: Ramdeni Me (How Many Me)
In 2021 I left Georgia with my van and traveled through Turkey and Bulgaria to several Balkan countries. What was meant to be just a spiritual journey with beautiful images, became a photo-documentary project. I witnessed the shrinking Salt Lake and heavily polluted marble island in Turkey, horses eating garbage and young people escaping the mountainous villages in Albania, forests burning in Montenegro, animal species high at risk in North Macedonia, and so much more. Here are some photographs from the above-mentioned exhibition.

After more than a decade of a super successful career as external affairs and online communications professional for the World Bank, I decided to challenge myself and leave my comfort zone.
In April 2022 I embarked on a Silk Road journey to contribute to “A Million Voices” - a visual storytelling project that intended to break down stereotypes and preconditioned ideas, inspiring change one story at a time.
As part of my freelancing experience during the past year, I have worked as a communications consultant, a storyteller, a photographer and a travel guide. My photo essays with focus on gender issues and lifestyle in Iran, Pakistan, Kyrgyz Republic and Mongolia were been published in a prominent online magazine in Georgia. I'm excited about taking on some new projects that won’t restrict me from traveling and will help me hone my visual storytelling skills even further.
