過去近10年以來,27歲的菲傭Xyza Cruz Bacani服侍著香港的一個家庭。空閒之餘,她則
帶著相機到城市裡捕捉街頭之美。然而,這一切到01/22/2015有了重大改變:她的攝影
作品讓她獲得遠赴盛名的Magnum人權獎學金,並得以到美國紐約大學進行深造。Bacani
表示,當下收到消息的那一刻,她哭了。
對Bacani來說,獲得正規教育如同美夢成真。他在約九年前,便加入媽媽到香港作為外籍
勞工。當她還在菲律賓時,就熱愛攝影,但直到抵達香港後的幾年,她才買了一台相機—
Nikon D90…用的是向他老闆借來的錢。Bacani的作品以黑白為主,並有著強烈的光影對
比,讓人一見難忘。
For the past 10 years, 27-year-old Xyza Cruz Bacani has been working as a domestic
worker for a wealthy Chinese family in Hong Kong. On her days off, she brings her
camera onto her city’s sidewalks and captures impressive street photos.
Yesterday, Bacani’s life took a dramatic turn: she was announced as a recipient of
the 2015 Human Rights Fellowship by the Magnum Foundation, a prestigious
scholarship that will give her the opportunity to study in an intensive, six-week-long
program at New York University in NYC.
