In this episode Ella interviews a London-based photographer and visual artist, Zula Rabikowska.
Zula is known for her powerful portraits and documentary photography focused on migration, identity, Eastern Europe and LGBTQI+ communities. Inspired by her Polish heritage, her work shines a light on voices and stories that are too often overlooked.
Through intimate and deeply human photography, Zula captures emotion, connection and authenticity in a way that feels both personal and universal.
Her work has been exhibited internationally and featured in outlets including the BBC, The Guardian, Rolling Stone and Bloomberg.
She’s also received major awards including the Getty Images Grant, the AOP Talent Award and the Earth Photo Moving Image Award.
Alongside her creative practice, Zula is the founder of Rethinking Eastern Europe collective. She also teaches photography at Kingston University.
