Judith Crico is a documentary photographer based in Paris, member of Women Photograph. With a focus on long form projects, she explores the idea of identity and resilience, questioning people and their social or cultural stories and relationships. Her work mostly addresses a research about marginal, isolated and peripheral lives. She is driven by research-led, self-initiated projects that push her both as an artist and as an individual.
After graduating from Photography studies in 2021, she is been working on two documentaries in parallel. "Their Names Are Written in the Sand" pays tribute to the last fishermen of Arte Xávega, a traditional fishing method practiced along the Portuguese coast, which tends to disappear. On the other hand, "Don't Worry About Me", started two years ago in Montreal, highlights the impact of the prison on families of inmates and the multiple tensions they face. This project has been rewarded by La Scam in 2022 and by Women Photograph in 2023.
