In this project, I explore the question: What does it mean to be a mother? I never had a chance to meet my mother. In August 2019, I set out to ask women the real meaning of being a mom. I talked with single mothers, young mothers, and experienced mothers. The series is made up of intimate portraits of these women in their homes with quotations in their own words about their experiences. I hoped to give an insight into motherhood in Rwanda today. “Being a mother” has been a very personal and rewarding project that was recently honored with the Eric Beecroft Golden Scarf Award at the Foundry Photojournalism workshop.
