This portrait of a young girl, with its perfectly crafted light effect and floral background, evokes the chiaroscuros created in other places in middle-class settings. However, we are in DR Congo and Fadjili, the model, definitely does not have a middle-class lifestyle. She has experienced stumbling blocks and has managed to overcome them, hence her calm and serene demeanour.
