Being a Child in Ethiopia

Being a child in Ethiopia means walking the thin line between survival, poverty, and hope. These are children who learn to survive, not just to play. Every smile, every step is an act of resilience

About Artist

Rahsan Firtina

I was born in Rize in 1974, I graduated from Marmara University, Department of Physical Education and Sports. I received basic photography training in 2019, and then I developed my photography skills in various workshops. During this process, I realized that taking photos is not just pressing a button, but pressing it correctly, with a lot of technical knowledge, without losing emotion. I mainly work on Street and Travel Photography. I opened my first personal exhibition in 2023.
