Donne D'Acciao

• Photographer
  Chiara Felmini

Tra le montagne afghane del Pamir vivono i Kirghizy , intrappolati in queste aree dai tempi di Marco Polo. Conducono una vita durissima , a circa 4000 metri di altezza, senza strade di accesso se non ripidi sentieri praticabili solo nei mesi estivi. Le donne portano dei costumi molto belli che li caratterizza : le nubili hanno un velo rosso , mentre le sposate portano un velo bianco.

I was born in Turin I have been photographing since I was 8. My interest for the world and the environment grew day by day, together with my passion for travelling. Animals have been a part of my life, as a job and as a passion, for more than 30 years so photographing them was a natural process.Later, my love for travelling made me discover the documentary photography and reportage. I photograph in order to tell stories, for an emotional and aesthetic research. The perpetual research of light, colour, of the right moment but mostly of the interaction with the people .
