Scarlett Coten is an independent French female photographer who dedicates herself essentially to personal, long-term projects. Since the 2000s, the Arab countries are at the heart of her photographic practice, which explores the themes of identity and intimacy.
Today, Scarlett continues her work around the demystification of stereotypes and new definitions of the concept of masculinity in the United States.
Scarlett is the winner of the Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2016 for her project "Mectoub" she worked on from 2012 to 2016, travelling in seven Arab countries (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon).
