Hi Batsceba,
First of all, thank you for agreeing to this interview.
My first question is about your artist name. Why did you choose Batsceba Hardy as your official name? Is it just the homage of a passionate reader to Far From the Madding Crowd and its author or do you sort of identify with Hardy's character? Damn, I never answered this question! However, I try to please you, so i tell you something: of course, the reference to Far from the madding crowd is glaring. For the rest I keep my secret, I can only add that Batsceba Hardy is a very singular name, unique in the world. I should copyright it

ProgesFestival
Progressive Street is proud to announce the launch of its first International Street Photography and Art Festival. This is a prelude to more ambitious plans, and starting in 2023 this annual Festival event will be staged in various cities around the world. We can't reveal much about this inaugural Festival for now. Yet we can take enormous pride in Progressive Street and all that we’ve accomplished in just three and a half years. Our Festival is not for profit. The goal is to discover and show images that are true testimonies of our time, without cultural stereotypes. Images that are not clichés. Images by photographers who document meaningful examples of life, stripped of all artifice. Images that awaken connections, provoke insights and inspire optimism. We turn to photographers who are actively involved in daily life - yet specifically pursue street photography, documentary photography, and photojournalism without distinction between professionals and
Loneliness Belongs to the Photographer
I don't think I'm essentially a street photographer. I guess Photography is just the way for me to express how I see things. It has something to do with a philosophical approach to reality. I have always had this way of observing reality, dwelling on details, on scenes that tell me something. Early on in my life, I felt inspired by what was around me. Eventually, I got into street photography. It was a slow process. And this happened in a city that was not my hometown, where my view got released from all the parameters and preconceptions that you naturally develop in known places. What I perceived in that new urban landscape and became the ghost I kept freezing everywhere and in everyone’s face with my shots was an intense feeling of loneliness. As a photographer, I am already used to entering the world of loneliness because I must be able to become invisible. So I found myself breathing in my own loneliness and the solitude of those around me. It is the distance between the
