From the outset of his career, through assignments in Syria, Tunisia and Egypt, Romanian born photographer Mugur Varzariu understood the importance of his role, and made the decision that shaped the future of his photography. Consciously choosing not to join photojournalists jumping from one story to the next, he sought out stories that remained untold and delving into them much more deeply than what usually happens in his field. Deciding instead to tell the stories of those left behind, Mugur focused on the unrepresented and forgotten or ignored one, those who live at the edges of our societies. Roma communities, prostitution, human trafficking, abandoned children, the elderly, obesity, Holocaust survivors and post communist era social issues have all been explored in Varzariu’s work.

At the Human Library he will tell us about his work on humanitarian issues.
