Road

After a busy day at work, I take the same road everyday. The way back home was a typical routine for me, until I started taking pictures of people, buildings, bus stops on the way. I became a spectator of the things happening around. For example, I noticed florist girl and sunflower seeds seller disappeared and being replaced by a billboard. I saw a growing belly of a gipsy girl, whose husband used to visit her everyday with kids. I felt like I knew all of them. It is a game to defeat monotony.

So, for me, documentary photography is the best way of telling stories, that are happening around me. Winner Kolga tbilisi Photo 2018 - Best mobile Photo winner EU Prize For Journalism Best Documentary Photo 2019
