Environment & Presence

Location: Tiflet, Morocco
Fieldwork Period: 2022
Documented Practice: Agricultural labor and everyday relationships with the rural environment
Method: Documentary Photography / Visual Ethnography
Archive: Amazigh Women Archive — Phase 1: Tiflet Fieldwork

This series foregrounds the rural environment as a site of lived experience, labor, and knowledge rather than a passive visual backdrop. By situating women within the landscapes in which everyday agricultural activities unfold, the photographs document relationships between individuals, material environments, and forms of practical knowledge developed through sustained engagement with place. The women represented here emerge not simply as figures within a landscape but as active participants in the environments through which everyday rural life is organized and sustained.

Archival Note: The photographs in this collection form part of the Amazigh Women Archive, an independent digital documentary archive developed through fieldwork in Tiflet between 2018 and 2022. Images are preserved alongside contextual information concerning location, period of documentation, documented practice, and research context.
