The Gnawa Festival is one of the most important cultural events in Morocco. It combines music, spirituality and performance in a unique way.
Photographing this festival requires a strong sense of timing. Movement, rhythm and expression are constantly evolving.
In my work, I focus on capturing both the intensity of the performances and the quieter moments behind the scenes.
These images aim to reflect the depth of Gnawa culture rather than simply its visual aspects.
