Around the World in 80 Portraits

"Exactly as movie directors simulate a frame with their hands to understand what the spectator will see, I wanted to make portraits of normal people, like you and me, with their distinct traits, their clothes and their world, their reality in the background. These people are each the directors of their own life, committing to impact their personal life, the lives of their families, friends and communities, and indirectly, on a larger scale, the world around us."
