Iris Gaudeila Kewin, BS, MS
"Unspoken stories in every glance in every silence. I have been capturing feelings and creative ideas for the past few decades. I am an observer through my life's lens of life which I transfer into my images. The visionary connections of these stages are special. Regardless of the images being executed, I seek a deep sense of simplicity in making my images a destination for stories which can be communicated to the viewers."
