Tamazight, the language of the Amazigh people, is one of the oldest languages still spoken today. It carries centuries of wisdom, poetry, and resistance, yet for a long time, it was pushed to the margins. Now, it stands tall, just like the symbols we see woven into our traditional clothing. The symbols present on Amazigh dresses —geometric shapes, triangles, and spirals—are inspired by nature, the stars, and ancient beliefs. Each of them, like a photograph, holds a story waiting to be told.

Photography, to me, is a way of preserving culture, just as our ancestors did through carvings, jewelry, and textiles. When I capture someone wearing a traditional Amazigh outfit, I am not just taking a photo—I am immortalizing a piece of history, giving it the visibility and recognition it deserves. These images are a bridge between past and present, proof that culture is alive, vibrant, and worthy of celebration.

Traditional Amazigh outfits are more than just garments; they are a reflection of identity. Every stitch, every vibrant color, and every symbol embroidered onto the fabric carries meaning. Passed down through generations, these outfits tell stories of resilience, freedom, and a deep connection to the land. Through my lens, I strive to preserve this artistry, showcasing its elegance while honoring the people who wear it with pride.
