Let’s go forward presenting the artists who have recently joined the Storytellers for Peace project.
Alphabetically, today’s protagonist is Sarah Cattani.
On her interesting work I have already written in the past here.
Here is what she writes of herself on her website: When is the best moment to quit your job, get rid of all the things you gathered throughout the years and leave to travel the world? I really don’t know, but at some point I decided that the time is now!
I was curious about the world since a child and figured exploring it, in every possible way, would be the right thing to do, and so I did. After a career in art, culture and social related documentaries for television and radio for almost 10 years in my hometown Luxembourg, editorial work for a magazine that connects visual arts and sustainability, creative work for exhibitions and video installations, I decided to leave everything behind and started my personal journey around the globe.
If you ask me today : “Where would you wanna be right now, if you could be anywhere? “ The answer would definitely be “here and now”. And as long as that’s my answer, I know that I am exactly where I should be and that makes me happy and content every single day.
Life is now, and that’s the only truth there is...

Well, this is very interesting, take your time.
I found today a very beautiful clip by Sarah Cattani, TV journalist, producer and reporter from Luxembourg.
My compliments for the choice.
In her remarkable video on her Youtube Channel – please, make more of them – you may watch her interview to photographer Kiran Kreer, a very motivating guy.
A Storytelling nomad, as the clip title says.
Here is a brief description from the video: Living as a day modern
nomad, travelling from one disaster zone to another, capturing moments with a camera and telling stories of the ones without voices; that’s how the documentary photographer Kiran Kreer spends his days since the last 3 years. He left everything behind in Malaysia, where he used to live and work in the corporate field, to follow his dream of a free life.
I (Sarah Cattani) met him in India while he was shooting in Pushkar, Rajasthan and decided to follow him around with my camera for a few days.
I like this so much, both the two give a wonderful gift to storytelling.
You can choose to tell stories about everything, that is a sacred freedom.
However, there are two special kinds of storytellers.
The ones who point their zoom to the unlucky side of the scene and the ones who point theirs on them.
Without both we could not know the former and the latter.
So thank you.
