Polly Rusyn’s passion for photography went to a whole new level while she visited Papua New Guinea, on a recce for the adventure travel company she was working for at the time.
In Madang she was fortunate enough to attend a traditional village sing-sing by the Bilbil people, where members of the tribe dress in traditional outfits to perform ancestral songs and dances. Polly asked if she could watch the villagers prepare for the event, and was then able to try her hand at documentary photography for the first time.
