Kitintale

"I mostly focus my work on identities, dreams and senses of belonging to communities. I'm really interested the way people come together and create their own subculture. "

The first Uganda skateboarders were inspired by the television, but hadn't any concrete to practice on in their neighborhood. They built the only skate park of East Africa with their own hand in Kitintale, a working class suburb of Kampala. With no assistance from government or large NGO's, kids from Uganda took significant steps to overcome boredom and poverty through skateboarding keeps the youth busy, combats the development of negative habits and develops a sense of belonging to a community. The elder skateboarders became also kind of educators. They talk about the problems that many Ugandan families are facing like HIV or malaria and try to inculcate values such as respect and solidarity among the younger ones.

The Portrait Machine Project

 

This project explores the idea that a camera can reveal an otherwise unseen insight into a subject's character and their relationship with the photographer and viewer. These portraits are made with a Polaroid aura camera developed in the 1970s by an American scientist in an attempt to record what a psychic might see.

Sébastien Girard

Desperate Cars,

Exhausted, abandoned, wounded, the collection of cars captured by Sébastien Girard are in fact desperate. We find them in the middle of the night, broken wrecks bearing the scars of their mad days wheeled by man. An analytical flash captures them in their everlasting solitude.

Agnes Thor

Aurora Borealis

 

The ephemeral world of Agnes Thor seems to have stopped in time.

Hours of idleness fuse the images with a poetic and lyrical nature. This is where the simplest things have the most poignant voice, be it an origami bird or a ray of light.

Urban Souls

While wandering the city, Eric Perriard was looking to catch the instant when an isolated character encounters a moment of self-realization. Perriard tried to capture their individuality, thoughts, and feelings such as loneliness or introspection.
