Soner Abaci
I am Soner ABACI. I live in Ankara. I have been interested in street photography and documentary photography since 2016. Because I like to use light and shadow while shooting street photos, I always go to different parts of the city where can provide me different light conditions. I prepare my documentary works as short projects. Street photography is my passion. I like combining light and shadow. I am in search of strangeness in ordinary life, and always try to improve myself.

About The Collection

City Chronicles: Athens
Athens: The poet Aristophanes * 450 BC considered it unnecessary to send silver coins to the rich city of Athens. At that time, Greece was the leading culture in Europe. Today, with the help of aid packages and savings projects it tries to get the crisis under control. Tourism should also help. Annually24.8 million tourists come to visit Greece. The main attraction the capital of Athens are the remains of theancient Greece. We visited the remnants of the ancient as well as the traces of the currently battered Greece.We met tourists, migrants and Athenians who gave us a picture of a city that could not be more contrasting.
City Chronicles: Madrid
Madrid. Mainly photographing after dawn and using a rather untypical approach to street photography, where the subject is aware and involved, we created a subjective portrait of the Spanish capital.

Stuart Paton
Stuart Paton

Born in Scotland but now desperately seeking la dolce vita in Milan. My pictures are a bittersweet blend of self-expression and social comment. In times like these, I don’t afford myself the luxury of being a neutral observer or windswept artist.
I’m spurred on by concerns about the erosion of singularity and de-humanisation; capitalism’s roadkill in the age of post-truth and big data. It sounds a little grandiose I know but it’s my way of killing time.

George Natsioulis
George Natsioulis

I was born in Greece (Larissa) in 1982.
My inspiration was derived by international professional photographers and the impression of their work that enchanted my mind.
Intimately familiar taking high quality digital photographs, including framing, selecting and setting up lighting, and determining advanced shutter and lens options.
Most of my works have Art minimal influences. From the beginning of my photographic career until today, minimalism is an important part in my photography. The winter inspires me.
I love to photograph the hazy days and especially those with fog. The result is enchanting and so impressive that it evokes a cinematic shot. I love geometry, geometric shapes and cinematic sensation so I can imprint them through my pictures.

Lorenzo Grifantini
I’m an architect founder of a successful architectural company. Architecture and photography, they are somehow interlinked, they both are related to the idea of space, tridimensionality and people interacting with the environment. For me, learning photography was a natural and organic process. Compared to architecture in where the whole project’s genesis for conception to completion can take years, photography allowed me to vent my creativity in a shorter amount of time.
I have had several reportages published in Vice magazine, Causette Magazine. Norwegian Airlines Magazine L’oeil de la Photographie, Stern Magazine, Nat Geo Italia, Ddonna La Repubblica, Die Zeit, Lens Culture and Photovogue for Vogue Italia. I have done few advertainment campaign, among them, Vodafone picked one of my pictures from the “Italian summer” reportage for their summer advertisement campaign in Holland and Stella Artois beer.

About The Collection

BODY LANGUAGE
This project is a spin-off of the worldwide known Italian Summer project. While Italian Summer is an environmental description of how Italians enjoy holidays this is more focused on the naked bodies and how they “speak” in a hot and somehow extreme environment.I took these pictures in different places around Italy—like the island of Salina in Sicily, Salento in Puglia, and Forte dei Marmi in Tuscany. I looked at people of all ages and social stations hoping to find that one common thread of surreal irony.

IF THE STREETS COULD SPEAK
The sixties changed the relationship between the city and its inhabitants forever. From the ruins of Victorian austerity and the interminable years of war, arose a “swinging” time that revolutionised the inter-connection between people and their built environment. London “is” the people who live there. The eight million inhabitants constitute a melting pot of different social classes which for better or worse, cannot be found in other cities.
The city rejects no one, it welcomes all without barriers. Only in London may one take photos like these without anybody batting an eye lid, at worst they point to their eyes as though to say: “look deep into them”.

Enrico Markus Essl

Born in Linz (Upper Austria), grown up in Salzburg now back, living and working in Linz. Since my early childhood I have been interested in photography. I detected street photography for myself and it’s been haunting me until this day. The urban jungle of cities, the people living there, the crucial moments and the endless trips through the streets and places are stirring my desire to capture moments. I work with Leica Cameras.

About The Collection

I live in the outskirts of Moscow, but in spite of that I rarely photograph there. I feel alienated by the rhythms and hassle of the big city. I prefer the quiet life of Russian provinces and the people there. That’s why I grasp at every opportunity to go as far away from the capital as possible, and prefer the small towns and villages in the countryside. This is where I look for inspiration for my work. Russian province isn’t just a place I love, it is my connection to my childhood memories, to my past, to my grandmother’s house where I first looked through my camera.

Joaquin Luna
Determined to trap an internal moment, photographer and filmmaker Joaquin Luna captures confessional compositions where the essence of individuals and environments intermingle with the artist’s own psyche. These existential inquiries are investigated through melancholic visual arrangements imbued with ambiguity, where decontextualized settings and isolated personalities delineate notions of disconnection. A sense of complexity is further encouraged by opposing muted and saturated colors, intentional and coincidental configurations, and hiding what is expected to be revealed, altogether gapping information and playing with tensions between reality and fiction. Unsettling atmospheres and liminal spaces are introduced by means of dividing elements such as mirrors, windows, and doors that, along with textures of glass, smoke, and rain frame glimpses of character that reinforce the uneasiness of the images. Suggestive instances stimulate the spectator to complete the fragmented narratives by projecting themselves into the scene. Inversely mirroring the observer’s reaction, photographing becomes for Joaquín a refuge to encounter the self and activate sensations of solitude. Becoming both observer and observed, his work externalizes a faceless self-portrait.
