Warriors
These warriors aren’t ancient, neither they do war.
Yes, they might have the strength from their past but they stare deeply into each other eyes. Kids that are being put to test and taught how to fight for their lives.
These moments were captured in Bangkok, in January 2016, at the Lumpinee stadium where every week young fighters confront each other on the ring, with the enthusiastic support of their families, team and a crowd of avid for gamblers. The screams don't bother them, they have much more than money at stake.

Outskirts
Documentary
I spent time working with V.D.C.A. in Siem Reap and Anlung Pi, a small village in northern Cambodia, where I experienced incredible hospitality. Their commitment to education inspired me to create Outskirts, a black-and-white photography exhibition reflecting my time there and raising funds for the local community.
Outskirts captures life in Anlung Pi—idyllic yet increasingly industrialized. Despite limited resources, the villagers’ generosity was boundless, reminding me how much we take for granted. V.D.C.A., founded by former Buddhist monk Mr. Thong, provides free education to underprivileged children. As a grassroots organization, it relies on outside support to continue its vital work.
Outskirts was shown at ZGallery in Sydney as part of the HeadOn Festival.
