Almas

<p>My name is Sara Di Franco, I&#39;m twenty-five years old and I&#39;m a documentary photographer, although I often prefer to define myself first of all as an observer. Photography is the path I have chosen to give voice to my profound interest in reality and in the stories that can take shape from it, and therefore be told.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/525406/About_me-1528749249.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My first meeting with Argentina took place in 2014, when I had the opportunity to fly to Buenos Aires and live there for six months as part of a university exchange. It was a very complex experience, full of emotions also very contrasting between them, but all of them prevailed (and still prevail) curiosity. Precisely for this reason, when I chose to pursue this career, I could not rule out the idea of continuing what I had started, and even if it took time, I&#39;m here now.</p> <p>&quot;Almas&quot; is a long-term project that draws its origin from the elements of the territory itself, from the remains of history that it bears in the places I have visited, and from the people I met along the way: all &quot;souls&quot; in fact.</p> <p>During my first stay in Argentina, I learned that it is a country with a rich history and culture, enormously diversified also in relation to the wide geographical distances, and I was fascinated by the way in which these stories and cultures can exist and coexist within a single nation, despite the thrusts of globalization.</p> <p>Exactly this is what I would like to tell.The intent of the report is to return to the observer some of these elements, through a visual key focused on the vivid colors and the authenticity of the composition.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/525409/Almas_04-1528749651.jpg" width="100%" /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>In the first part of the project I was able to explore the Andean Northwest, the North East and part of the central Pampas; thanks to your contribution this time I will have the opportunity to push myself south and enter one of the most ancient and fascinating regions of Argentina.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/525410/Almas_01-1528749855.jpg" width="100%" /></p>
