Nadia Ferroukhi, born to a Czech mother and an Algerian father, grew up with a nomadic spirit. Since her early adulthood, she has traveled the world, camera in hand, bearing witness to realities she captures through her photo reports, published in French and international media such as Geo, Le Monde, Le Figaro, Marie Claire, D-La Repubblica, Terra Mater, Courrier International, Unesco, and more.

Her work has been exhibited in prestigious galleries, museums, and festivals, including Visa pour l’Image, the La Gacilly Photo Festival, the Musée du Quai Branly, and the Bamako Biennale.

A polyglot with an insatiable curiosity, Nadia Ferroukhi combines her “third eye” with deep empathy to bring her passions to life. Her photographic approach sheds light on the diversity of the world and, above all, on the lives of those who, often in the shadows, are its essential actors.

Through her images, she tells the stories of people who, through their uniqueness, enrich the planet. For several years, she has devoted herself to long-term photographic projects, with a particular focus on the condition of women around the globe.

Driven by a fascination for the great women explorers of the 19th century—pioneers who braved hostile terrains and the prejudices of a time when women did not have the same rights as today—she sees herself reflected in their journeys: not in their era, but in their boldness and determination to bear witness to the world despite the obstacles.
