Tracey Derrick, a South African photographer known for capturing the diverse cultures within the country, passed away on September 9, 2019.
She was a photographer who dedicated herself to her craft full-time since 1992. During this time, South Africa was holding a referendum on ending apartheid, and much of her early work centered around the attainment of democracy in the country. As her career progressed, her projects began to merge her personal life with her socially-driven interests.
She documented her journey through breast cancer using a digital camera, rediscovering her passion for colour intensity.
