Maminka

"Maminka" is Anna Rathkopf's personal project reflecting the shifting roles with her Czech mother. After her mother helped her during cancer treatment in 2016, Anna became the caregiver when her mother faced a stroke and cancer in 2022. This award-winning photography series, featured by CNN and aPhotoEditor and exhibited at DUKE Health, emphasizes the evolution of caregiving, family love, and the challenges of caring for aging parents, as Anna, her husband Jordan, and their young son Jesse balance their responsibilities.
