Through portraiture, Magali Delporte seeks to reveal the personality of her subjects. She discovered photography during her journalism studies, adopting the method of the photo essay. In London, she perfected her art at The Independent and The Times. Her project Unseen: Sport Without Sight about blind athletes won her the Canon Female Photojournalist Award in 2001 and an exhibition at Visa pour l’Image in Perpignan.

 

Now based in Paris, she works with the press, photographing artists, athletes and political figures. Alongside this, she has developed personal projects, exploring intimate themes linked to her family, her status as a woman and as a photographer, as well as her immediate environment, as illustrated in her book La Résidence.
