The Los Angeles-based
artist's recent photography project, "The
Elders," features older generations of her
city's most vulnerable, whose striking stares, tired skin and open demeanor
show the humanity within the too-often dehumanizing issue of homelessness.
"I
am inspired by the soul that I see and feel when looking into
the depth of the eyes of people a little older, perhaps a lot wiser, and with
life stories that are marked on their faces, stamped with the age of beauty and
time," Boschet states on the project's Facebook page. "For I see
beauty in every line."
The photo project highlights individuals whose diverse backgrounds allow
Boschet to explore the cultures, religions and lifestyles of each subject in
profound and eye-opening ways.
"Togetherwe engage in interesting and deep conversation," Boschet
wrote. "We part with a respect for one another and a gentle and
compassionate bond that was shared for only a small amount of time, but for me,
it is time that will always be memorable and that I will look back on and
treasure." Fonte
