exploration of intimacy in relationship between a parent and child, and us accepting our parents for who they are, and not who we wish them to be

Angelika Kollin (b. 1976) is an Estonian Fine Art/Post-Documentary photographer currently residing in Tampa, USA. She is self-taught and engages with her passion for photography and art as a tool of exploration of interhuman connections and intimacy. Angelika's work's honesty and unapologetic directness is caringly softened by the aura of intimate emotions and gracious dignity. She has spent eight years living in African countries (Ghana, Namibia, and South Africa), where she explored the same topics in various cultures and economic conditions.
