Who is behind the lens?
Coline Stagnitto Woleg
filmmaker | videographer | photographer
For more than ten years, my life has been woven between different territories, different souls, different ways of inhabiting the world. I have had the privilege of learning from communities that have welcomed me, adopted me. Who have given me a new perspective, a rhythm. A way of being in the world - which I continue to explore. These encounters have shaped my commitment.
First a nurse in international solidarity, I came to understand that care can take many forms. Caring is, above all, about listening. Creating a space where the other feels seen, recognised and respected. Where they can share their story and see their voice resonate beyond their immediate circle. This realisation led me to photography, film and writing.
"Each cultural exchange
is a bridge of understanding between our differences,
a thread woven through diversity that affirms and values our identities."
Throughout my journey, I have witnessed firsthand the impact of cultural erasure on communities. But I have also seen the strength of those who fight to preserve their heritage. Today, I tell the stories that are entrusted to me - stories of transmission, resilience and identity. Combining artistic sensitivity with a humanistic approach, I strive to share narratives that resonate with both heart and mind, in the hope of fostering deeper understanding and greater recognition of cultures.
These stories are not mine. They are entrusted, shared, co-constructed with those who carry them, who choose to pass them on. Listening, understanding, learning - that is how these stories come to life. They are built through collaboration, with a constant commitment to respecting the words given, honoring the act of transmission. Each image is born from a shared intention : to create a space where voices rise and echo - beyond borders...
