Maroc je t'aime

  • Photographer

In my series Maroc je t'aime, I'm looking for the tension between religion, restriction
and freedom within the youth of Casablanca, Marocco. Culture and city are dynamic in which
youth provides its own twist. Like the way girls wear a veil, not only because of their
religion, but also for tradition, fashion or in admiration of their idol. And the
mosque-terrace, once a municipal swimming pool, is now a spring-board for a free fall into
the ocean. It feels like no matter what, youth will take their freedom.
