Intermission
So while you and I and everyone else wait for the other updates I said would come, eventually, I swiftly managed to upload some pictures from the Frauenstreik/Grève des femmes/Sciopero delle donne 2019 that took place all across Switzerland this past Friday, June 14th.
I was asked to provide some coverage of the event in Ticino (the Southern, Italian-speaking region of Switzerland) for a collective of Swiss women photographers. Each would then provide about 10 pictures to the platform freshfocus.swiss in order to showcase the day's events through a woman's gaze – and also to make a point about a profession that is still mainly men-dominated.
In here, though, you will find a few more shots that didn't find their way into that platform. It was a long, though day, with a lot of ground to cover and a tight deadline – but it was for a cause I believe in and quite possibly one that would make history, given Switzerland's rather poor tradition of taking matters to the streets.
Head over to the album down below.
