S5 E6: Mariana Arrieta - From the Darkroom to the Microphone

Jess Poulin Season 5 Episode 6

Stepping out of the darkroom and behind the mic can be a daunting experience, but for Award-winning photographer Mariana Arrieta, the transition comes naturally! 

Joining Jess for Episode 6 of High On Feminism, Mariana talks her Basque and Mexican roots, and how she weaves memory, culture, and emotion into every frame of her photographs. From Tanzania, France, Cuba, Mexico, Italy, the US, and more, Mariana shares how film has long been a way to understand the world, preserve the past, and stay connected to her roots. From her father and grandfather’s love of the craft, to learning the way a roll of film can reveal hidden truths, Mariana opens up about archiving her family’s history and the deeper meaning behind every image she captures.
