Story
the photographer
Teba Sadiq Abdul Hassan is a 22 year-old photojournalist and photographer working at Reuters.
"I did not study photography through university, but rather through workshops. The female element in photojournalism is very little in Iraq. I want to make it clear to the world and the Iraqi society that there are female photojournalists here who deserve the title and can face the difficulties of field journalism, which is not just for men. And I always explain this through the pictures that I take. The pictures are unconventional and they are in difficult situations such as demonstrations and places where photography is somewhat difficult, such as holy places."
LE CONCEPT
Dans les pays déchirés par la guerre, la grande majorité des photographes professionnels travaillent pour des agences de presse. Cela signifie que leur travail couvre essentiellement les conflits. Notre projet est motivé par l’opportunité de donner aux photographes talentueux un nouveau débouché pour leur travail. A travers ce projet, nous aimerions révéler un aspect des pays ravagés par la guerre, rarement dévoilé par les médias internationaux.
