Title: Threads of Titicaca
¼ white border A4 sized print on high quality lustre paper
Photographer notes:
Bathed in the warm glow of the golden sun, an elder Andean woman on a low mountain surrounded by the waters of Lake Titicaca weaves threads that connect the past with the present. Her weathered hands move with a practiced grace, crafting delicate patterns emblematic of centuries-old traditions that bind her community. As the sunlight illuminates her face, it reveals a quiet dignity and resilience, a reflection of a life deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of the Andes. This image captures the true owners of the land, whom for centuries have lived harmoniously amongst a harsh landscape. This series aims to shine a light on those whom are often forgotten in our rush to progress to modernity.
This series of images will donate 50% of all profits to Yapay Bolivia, a local charity dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty by improving education and healthcare access for women, children, and families in need. Yapay Bolivia partners with Bolivian organisations to fund scholarships for survivors of domestic violence, build classrooms in remote communities, and support healthcare initiatives such as rural outreach, tele-health, and hospital equipment, focusing especially on vulnerable mothers and infants. With zero overhead costs, 100% of donations go directly to programs creating long-lasting, meaningful impact for poverty-stricken communities across Bolivia.
