Debra Matwychuk


Debra Matwychuk is inspired by the great iconic photographers of the world, as well as the instructors and mentors she has had the fortune to meet. She is driven by the idea that an image is a permanent recording of the space between that which something will become and that which will never be quite the same again.

 

Heighten Awareness


Born out of one man’s journey into the world of a kidney failure diagnoses, our goal is to heighten awareness for thousands of Canadians waiting for kidney transplants.

 

Our Approach


By documenting persons in need and the heroes who selflessly volunteer to help, these candid portraits reflect all that it is to be human: to come to terms with our own mortality and to find strength and courage in the face of it, to respect and appreciate our bodies, and to practice the highest form of altruism.  

 

Participating


If you're waiting for a kidney transplant, or have had one in the past, or if you're a kidney donor yourself, please feel free to contact us if you would like to participate in our photo project. We would love to meet you!
