Among You: This project reflects the choices around personal identity for Moroccan youth. Through a selection of portraits, Kilito documents young people who take their destinies into their own hands. These individuals have the courage to choose their own realities, often pushing the boundaries of what is socially acceptable.

Hooked to Paradise: This project is an ongoing, long-term photographic series highlighting the complex and multifaceted issue of nationwide oasis degradation in Morocco and its impact on its inhabitants.
