Between Ruins and Roots

In a world that is constantly changing, I believe it is important to stay connected to our roots and traditions.
Together with my friend Aizirek, who grew up in Kochkor village, Naryn, Kyrgyzstan, we created a photo shoot exploring our cultural heritage. We visited the pastures, an abandoned old building, and the banks of the Naryn River, where we unexpectedly encountered horses drinking water. This beautiful moment made the experience even more special and connected our photographs to the surrounding landscape.
Through traditional clothing, jewelry, and the natural environment, I wanted to capture the relationship between people, animals, and nature, while celebrating the roots that deserve to live on in the modern world.
