Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country shaped by a complex history and a diverse landscape, where Ottoman-era architecture, Austro-Hungarian influences, and rugged natural environments exist side by side. Cities and towns are often set within valleys and river systems, creating a strong connection between built form and landscape.

My photography has focused on Sarajevo, Mostar, and Jajce, where historic streets, bridges, and rivers reflect the layered cultural and geographical identity of the country.
