“I like to photograph mostly people, for now. I’m not so sure why. Maybe it’s because they are my source of happiness, sadness and of inspiration. My aim is to create “real” images. I’m not crazy about particular genres of photography but I like my photographs to give a feeling of looking at a version of the world that we don't usually see, but know,” – Zwelibanzi.
