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.
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
would spend more
Hasankeyf
Hasankeyf is an ancient town in Southeastern Turkey, located along the Tigris
river in the Batman province. It was established in the 18th century BC and in
1981, almost 3600 years later, it was declared a natural conservation area by
Turkey. In spite of this, it’s been regularly flooded as part of a dam-building

The photographs are extraordinarily rich and full of detail — the birds bind them together, they are the common denominator, but there is so much more in the images than just the pigeons. I
Coastal Mammoth
The 2011 tsunami caused an unprecedented amount of damage, chaos and grief.
Everyone in Japan was affected in one way or another. The Japanese
government soon began to erect a gigantic wall at the cost of billions in
the northeast region of the country after the earthquake that caused the
tsunami.
The Invisible Wall
Paco Poyato brings us back a few decades to the times when the Berlin Wall divided Berlin and, subsequently, Germany into two parts — East and West.
Appalachia. Mountaintops to Moonscapes
Appalachia, Virginia is mainly known for two reasons. The first is that
it’s an incredibly resource-rich territory; it supplies two-thirds of the
nation’s coal reserves. Coal is an outdated energy source, which is
damaging to the environment as it’s slowly being phased throughout the
whole world in
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.
