Exhibition at Festival Fotografia Etica in Lodi, Italy | Jana Margarete Schuler
Inland photographer Jana Margarete Schuler presents her series “Between Blood and Glitter” at the Festival Fotografia Etica in Lodi, Italy, running from 27 September to 26 October.
The series documents a group of female wrestlers in Ciudad Juárez, one of the world’s most dangerous cities for women. The photographs capture the courage and determination of these women stepping into the ring: clad in sparkling costumes, yet primarily exuding a strength that speaks on behalf of all women. Each image is both an act of protest and a gesture of hope, showing that these athletes fight not just opponents, but a system that seeks to render them invisible.
The exhibition is part of the 16th edition of Festival Fotografia Etica, a festival fully dedicated to photojournalism and documentary photography.
