Haitian Despair

Over one year after the devastating 2010 earthquake and parts of Haiti still remain desperate for aid and a glimpse of positive progress. However, life's struggles continue and cries for help usually go unanswered as locals cope with the current stagnant situation.

Eric Kruszewski is a self-taught, emerging photographer whose love of photography began in 2008 after his travels throughout India. The country's constant energy, true emotion, vibrant color, and pure culture inspired Eric to capture everyday life. His sense of curiosity and passion for photography take Eric across the globe where he immerses himself in people's lives and illustrates their life through the lens. His passion lies in finding simple moments in an otherwise busy and complex world. He hopes to tell stories about those who feel they may not have a "voice" and thus allow viewers to become lost in someone else's tale. Eric is based in Washington DC, but is currently in Toronto working on a documentary feature.
