Fan Wu: My Land

Fan Wu: My Land

I love this land because it’s where I live. I often walking in the time tunnel, I look for news about this land inside my heart. Person and things here, as well as everything is filled with the familiar smell. So I haven’t any grand willingness to let the valuable of what I photographed more precious. I just want to…

The little man is discovering the world, experiencing admiration, horror and surprise. Photographs are taking us onto a journey of an early childhood. They wake up dreams of the inner child, the child inside us,…

This series of photographs is part of a long-lasting project dedicated to the Yellow Mountain in China. The classical Chinese landscape painting has been an important source of inspiration in my photography for more than 20 years and has drastically affected the way I consider a landscape as a subject.

Javiera Estrada: SALT + SEA

SALT + SEAis a homologous study between the feminine form and the complex ecology of the ocean and it’s surrounding environment. Our planetary bodies of water are known to be affected by the lunar cycles. The changing moon is particularly associated with women because its regular twenty-eight day cycle so closely matches the cycle of menstruation, intertwining blood and water.…

Jeniffer Andrea Tobón Bedoya: The life knots

These photographs were taken during a process of change, where I experienced a depression, due to this; I managed to show through the photographs the changes, tests and knots I had to release. I realized, the challenges that we all have to live day by day and how we can overcome them. Followed by this, I sought to show in…
Jason McGroarty: Totem

Jason McGroarty: Totem

0
Through Totem I wanted to capture the heart-stopping moment when the wild breaches the barriers of the city and reminds us that the line between humans and wildlife is not as clear-cut as we would like to believe in, and that in the animal kingdom, the only thing we can count on is unpredictability, that the unexpected should be expected.…
Nofar Horovitz: Ties of perception

Nofar Horovitz: Ties of perception

0
I decided to express in this project my view of humans and their desires, the glass walls that we erect in our way when we are prevented from achieving our dreams and ambitions. Compromising on the mediocre, the norm, the ordinary instead of setting ourselves goals that we perceive as daydreams, with only a rare chance of fulfillment. Relinquishing before…

George Digalakis: Silent Waters

Minimalism, both as a philosophy of art and life, has deeply influenced my work. I draw inspiration from various objects, like the sea and the sky and from my emotional response to them. It is in the simple feelings that they evoke to me—vastness, quietness, tranquility, symmetry, and balance—that I find beauty. The water, an element I am deeply drawn…
Patrick Desgraupes: Voodoo Spirit

Patrick Desgraupes: Voodoo Spirit

0
It was in Togo and Benin that Voodoo was born, but from the 17th century, black people enslaved spread Voodoo in America and in the Caribbean. For historians, the immense suffering of slaves deported to America is undoubtedly at the origin of the transformation of Voodoo on the American continent, towards practices more related to witchcraft or Satanism. In the…

Vahid Babaei: The wind will carry us

Wind is fertilizer. Wind is offspring of many legends and historical stories. Wind sometimes covers, sometimes naked. Involving human feelings with natural phenomena is full of enjoy for me. Concealing human feelings behind a mask and compelling contact thought, and think about who are they? How they living? and what do they think about? ‘The wind will carry us’ was…

John Eaton: A Game of Buzkashi

Buzkashi is a favorite game of the Tajik people living on the high, dry Pamir plateau, between the Pamir and Karakoram mountains in the Himalayas. It is played on horseback on a vast, ill-defined plain, “the pitch”, to celebrate an important village event — in this case a wedding. The objective is for one of the riders, “the players”, to…

Marco Sadori: A Face Without a Name

Telling the story of the Caucasus means telling a rich and at the same time cruel story. A story that has carved the face of the people and has painted their horizons with strong hues with ineffable shades. As I walk through these mountains, I lose myself in the face of an old lady who goes to light a candle…

HIROO FUJITANI: THE LYRIC POETRY – A CAT

I think that a cat is a philosopher or poet though I do not know a great occidental philosopher sometimes. Their behavior passes our understanding. I am interested in their saintly, venal, capricious behavior and cuteness. That’s way, I explore shooting a cat for capturing a moment like with lyric, emotional or an arresting sight of a cat on this…
