Senior Citizens for taz / Hassan Fayez

Hassan Fayez is 74 years old, originally from Palestine and he spends his days in the Community Center in his street, helping out with all kinds of chores, maintaining a small garden and cleaning the street every morning at 7 am.

‚Ich habe keine Angst vor dem Tod, um Gottes willen. Man wird geboren, wird erwachsen, und am Ende geht es unter die Erde. Das ist das normale Leben. Man darf darüber nicht traurig sein. Wenn die Zeit kommt, herzlich willkommen.‘

These portraits are part of a series about senior citizens I photographed with wonderfully sensible texts by Plutonia Plarre and Manuela Heim for taz.
