Wendy Ewald (b. 1951, Detroit, USA) is a prolific documentary photographer and educator whose career spans the globe; she has undertaken projects in United States, Labrador, Colombia, India, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Holland, Mexico and Tanzania. Her work is characterised by consistent collaboration with children, women, families and teachers; Wendy frequently prompts her collaborators to alter her photographs by drawing or writing on them, complicating notions of authorship. She also encourages her collaborators to produce their own images, using the camera as a tool through which to visualise their dreams and access the intangible.
