About Arielle Bobb-Willis:
Arielle Bobb-Willis has been using the camera for nearly a decade as a tool for empowerment, developing a visual language that speaks to the complexities of life. She applies a “painterly” touch to her photography using vivid colours while documenting her subjects in disjointed positions to highlight the complexities of the human
experience.
