Sunset time in La Skala, Medina of Essaouira

by Jerome Lorieau

Man walking on Essaouira Medina's rampart (Jerome Lorieau)

A beautiful golden light covers the Skala where a man is walking on the Medina’s rampart. Hidden couples flirt. Street vendors sell crafts. girls chat. tourists takes pictures. The place is one of the favourite spot for foreigners and locals to gather every evening to look over the sea and enjoy the sunset.

About

Expressing myself between documentary and street photography, my work focus on long term projects because of the human aspect, but also to have better insight and understanding of a situation over time. Photography is a medium that allows me to explore the cultural and sociological aspects of life in order to understand the relationship between the people, their traditions/habits/cultures and their environment. In recent years I have worked on separate long term projects about the Medinas of Morocco and more recently the Yamuna river in India.
