Stigma was my story until hope intervened in 2003. I am now active within the community helping others to rid of stigma, grasp hope and find direction. Having secured a visa I created The C12 Documentary Collective with the intention to capture the experience of the homeless community in Downtown Phoenix and their journey towards hope.

Presenter: Stephen Gittins

Biography: I am 48 and from Wales in the United Kingdom, which is where I completed a degree in Documentary Photography 2003. In 2008 I moved to Arizona with the sole purpose to study a Masters of Fine Arts at ASU. I graduated the Masters in 2011. My photography has evolved around the human spirit and my goal is to capture this essence.
