Mona Simon
Mona Simon is a London based documentary photographer. She studied in Bremen, Havana and London, and has won various awards for her work, including the Portrait prize in this years ‘Photographers giving back’ award. Her personal work focuses on issues of cultural and social change including migration.
Mona belongs to a vanishing German so called Transylvanian Saxon and Hungarian minority, living in what today is Romania. Growing up in a multicultural environment taught her to appreciate cultural differences, values and traditions. She was 10 when the Communism collapsed and almost the entire minority decided to immigrated to Germany.
Mona studied Photography at the University of the Arts Bremen, where she worked under the guidance of Peter Bialobrzeski, and at the London College of Communication for her MA. She has spent time in Havana, and worked as freelance photographer in Germany and the UK. Her work has been exhibited internationally.
