A Plastic Refuge
DESCRIPTION
A vulnerable woman lies on a bed of waste near the Buriganga river in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Deprived of the most basic human needs, atop a disease-ridden refuge, she inhales the polluted air of the over-populated city as insects gnaw at her while she sleeps. The slums are not safe and the slums are not habitable. AUTHOR
I am Saiful Islam, I am a freelance photographer from Dhaka,Bangladesh. I used to take photography are Landscape, Documentary, lifestyle, travel, portrait, nature, etc. I always like to spend my time with people from several network, both socially identified or not. I always look forward to learn something new, meet new people and know them. I always wanted to do something for the people who couldn't keep pace with this fast forward world. Their culture and lifestyle are one of my favorite subject in front of lens. Moreover I would love to represent my country through the backward population because they are holding the authentic culture of our country.
