In fall 2010, I worked with a local women’s organization, Sol Naciente, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, which is dedicated to empowering women who have suffered from various abuses - living in the streets, drug addictions and domestic violence. For three weeks, I taught a group of eight women photography, from the basic techniques to the way that it can express what words cannot. The workshop was used as a tool of empowerment for the women, teaching them how to express themselves as individuals and as members of a group, thus creating a space of support and trust. This is their story.
