Dirt Road
The story covers the famous Camino de Santiago de Compostela network of
pilgrims’ ways that lead to the shrine of St. James the Great in Northern
Spain. It’s a personal account of the photographer’s journey which lasted
over 1000km throughout the spiritual passage.
The Steel Plant Mothers
Wilfully ignoring the pleas of the local and national population, the Ilva plant, Europe’s largest steel plant, is portrayed as prioritising profit over people's lives.
