Displacement: Eastern Congo
Photographs taken over multiple visits to displacement camps in North Kivu, documenting the daily lives of families displaced by ongoing conflict.
Eastern Congo has been in crisis for decades, but the world’s attention has moved on. These photographs are an attempt to bring it back.
The people in these images are not victims. They are parents, teachers, farmers, students — people whose lives were interrupted by violence they did not choose. In the camps, they have built something remarkable: a community of resilience, held together by improvisation and mutual care.
What the camera captures is only a fraction of the story. The rest lives in the conversations I had, the meals I shared, the silences that said more than words could.
