From Hasselblad’s feature on Isa Leshko:
As a project that started off with confronting her own mortality after caring for her mother suffering from Alzheimer’s, Isa Leshko embarked on a decade-long project photographing elderly farm animals. Rescued from various meat and dairy factory farms and taken to sanctuaries, these farm animals represent the small population of those who actually get the chance to grow old. Creating connections with pigs, cows, turkeys, and sheep, among others, Isa captured the unique personalities of each animal on film through the lens of her Hasselblad 503CW.
