View this post on Instagram In the beginning, The Atlas of Beauty was just a small personal project born out of passion for travels and portraiture. Back then I was to shy to ask women about their personal stories, but most of the times their eyes told me so much, like this woman’s incredible gaze. All those gazes from around the world(this was captured in Bukhara, Uzbekistan) made the project popular. But in time I have realised that words and stories can perfectly complete the portraiture. So I started to overcome my shyness, to ask questions, to listen and sometimes spent hours with women that I randomly met on the streets of the world. That change my life, because I learned in a few years more than in a lifetime. I still think that words are sometimes unable to express some feelings and a photo might do that much better. But today I believe that a blend of photography and storytelling is my best way to present the amazing women of our world, their struggles and dreams. I’m still at the beginning of the road and I try to learn every day and make the project better. Thank you to all the incredible women that I met during my travels, thank you to all of you who follow the project, for being part of this amazing community. We are all The Atlas of Beauty and together we can make the world a little better place. #AroundTheWorld #TheAtlasOfBeauty A post shared by The Atlas Of Beauty (@the.atlas.of.beauty) on Feb 20, 2018 at 8:49am PST
