Lena Kunz <\/strong>(born 2000) was born and raised in a small village in Lower Saxony. Since 2023 she has been studying Visual Journalism and Documentary Photography at Hochschule Hannover, focusing on documentary and portrait photography. From an early age she was fascinated by people and their different realities \u2013 an interest she now expresses through visual storytelling. For her, photography is a way of making people and their stories visible. She places great value on building closeness and capturing moods and emotions authentically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
