Martyrion, Isabelle's Story

Overview

On December 3, 2022, at just 20 years of age, Jean Paul Sofia died when he was crushed by rubble at a construction site in Kordin, Malta. His mother, Isabelle Bonnici, began a long fight for justice, launching the second public inquiry in the history of the Maltese Republic. She made her testimony even more powerful by deciding to pose for Martyrion, a photographic project that denounces environmental destruction and territorial abuse through the body and religious iconography.
