Separation
The European Union, or the Council of Europe as it was known when it was founded
in 1949, brought in tremendous change to society permeating its very core. The
benefits were of economic, cultural and security nature but some also argued
that it erased their national identity. One of the biggest improvements, though,
was that one could travel, live and study in a place different from one’s birth
country unhindered — it has never been this easy to meet, fall in love with and

Calais Migrant Camp ‘The Jungle’
Back in September 2016, Aaron Chown set out to document the Jungle Camp in Calais where asylum seekers reside before attempting to enter the United Kingdom. The photographer highlighted the humanitarian migration crisis that engulfed the continent 5 years ago and decided it’s appropriate and important to remind us of the situation on the 5th anniversary of the demolition of the camp.
How western part of Ukraine helps refugees from the attacked areas
Serhiy Gudak from the city of Uzhorod, Ukraine.
The western region of Ukraine is well known for its hospitality. Nice food and
people. Today, millions of people are moving to the west from the areas which

Constructed Landscapes
Dafna Talmor’s Constructed Landscapes are the end result of many years of frustration caused by her own photographs. The images are taken in different countries, among which are Israel, Venezuela, the UK and the United States, but their initial purpose was nothing more than personal keepsakes. As Talmor accumulated a large archive, she became increasingly conscious that the photographs don’t show much about the places that they depict and they are just that — pictures of places she once visited. She decided to use them as her source material instead of photographs in their own right in order to create something new and this is how her ongoing series was born.
In-A-Gadda-Da-England
National oddities and peculiarities were the starting point for Edward Thompson’s project In-A-Gadda-Da-England. Born and bred in the U.K., he offers his viewers the perspective of an insider who had spend his whole life surrounded by British culture
Smoking Chefs
Jan Enkelmann lives and works in London where he spends his time observing
people. Many would think that photographers, especially street
photographers, go to the street, take countless images and that’s it, job
done. I would argue that it takes much more than that — many image-makers

Kibera
Edwin Ndeke’s body of work focuses on Kibera — one of the largest urban
settlements in the world which is situated on the periphery of Nairobi,
Kenya’s capital with a population of approximately 2.5 million. Poverty,
disease and crime are not uncommon when discussing Kenya and Africa in
Metropole
Once the Metropole or mother city at the heart of a vast global empire, London is now the dominion to a new world power. Subject to the flows of global finance and whims of markets, the city has become little more than an investment opportunity for multinational developers and overseas investors. Metropole records the brutally disorientating effects of this by documenting these legions of new corporate and residential blocks as they are constructed and occupied.
St Paul's Cathedral — The Central Spot Of All The World
Architecture with religious purposes has quite different functions from
residential or commercial. While the latter is mainly functional and
economic, the former intends to be grandiose. It’s very much part of its
design to make humans feel small, minute and God, or whoever the deity is,
appear grand, larger
