While I Was Sleeping
While I Was Sleeping is the third part of a trilogy of projects that came out of that shift (the other two being After the Fact and Endless Plain). These projects, by and large, use documentary techniques and the resulting images look like documentary photographs, but they are not intended to document an event.
"The situation is fucked up, but people are fucking great!"

NachtClubsBerlin
This project documents today’s techno culture in Berlin, and shows how it has been transformed into a mainstream culture that attracts millions of tourists to the city each year.
Interior Design in the Age of Extinction
Conrado Velasco is a photographer and art director born and educated in the
Philippines. He currently divides his time between Ireland and Germany and here
we present you his body of work Interior Design in the Age of Extinction.
By Velasco’s own admission, he tends to look at the environment in zoos as a
theatre for the uncanny, exuding the sense of something being ever so slightly

Front Yard
The front yard is as much a metaphor as it is a space. Homes reflect the material successes of their inhabitants, their aesthetic tastes, and concrete the ties that bind family, lovers, and friends.

His untimely death was distressing to his young daughter but at the same time it
reminded her how fragile human life is — we never know when or how we will meet
our demise. The only certainty is that eventually, we will.
> Death is a question of containment. For a long time, attempts at understanding
felt like trying to empty the ocean
Casitas
The project exposes the living conditions that Puerto Ricans have to endure such as natural catastrophes, limited government support and unstable electric service. Although the series began in 2013, it wasn’t until 2017 when Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico that Saldaña realised the series is something more than just a personal project — it is a testament of the residence of the local population.
Merlion Memories
Darren O’Brien’s project takes this fragile idea of the nature of memory as its starting point. He accompanied his partner on her return to Singapore, where she spent six years as a child, eighteen years later.
Exemplary Home
Exemplary Home is a documentary work exploring the north-western part of rural Bulgaria. It aims to illustrate the effects of rapid urbanisation, progressive globalisation and corruption on the most vulnerable parts of Bulgarian society.
