Anne-Sophie Mauffré-Rochelet
24100 Bergerac, France
Anne-Sophie Mauffré was born in 1972.
During her five years as a student at the “Ecole Estienne” in Paris, she acquired the necessary basic technical skills for a career in the publishing and graphic industries. Then, after ten years as a production manager at Prisma Press, Anne-Sophie left the world of business to become a photographer - following a solo round-the-world trip. In 2012, she moved to the South-West of France, to Bergerac in the Dordogne region, near Plum Village, a Bouddhist Monastery.
Her current project involves making use of her technical skills and talents to work and to publish, free of constraints, through exhibitions and books. Her particular vocation is to provide a platform for those forgotten and left behind by society, to put the spotlight on those who are ignored by the majority of the media, and to capture the spark of life, even in the most difficult situations – as with those people struggling with mental and physical handicaps and with those in the final stages of their lives.
