Mobile Photography Intimate Interview with Amado Ergana from Ethiopia, Africa
Our ninetieth interview in this series of intimate interviews is with talented photographer and artist Amado Ergana from Ethiopia, Africa. You may know Ergana’s imagery from his popular Instagram account @ergana.amado.

Our eighty eighth interview in this series of intimate interviews is with talented photographer and artist Jana Curcio from Washington D.C. United States. This interview is refreshing and thought-provoking, a stirring exploration on friendship, feminism, self love and religion. Curcio I have now discovered is a woman who leaps from the page and into our hearts, she captured mine, almost immediately. There’s a depth to this interview and to the artwork, burning fiercely with love and hurt. She brings into focus, all that really matters and even her thoughts on the afterlife are poetic, “Absolutely! I’m so excited….. I can’t wait to get to heaven! I’m ready to go today in…
