Essay in the book
The latest monograph by a British photographer is set against the backdrop of our new chaotic society, where we contend with often overwhelming feelings of fear, anxiety and loneliness while simultaneously seeking to draw closer to each other in the hope of a better world. Communication is easier than ever: we can reach out to strangers and share our points of view with anyone, anywhere, any time — and yet the work focuses on life within cities, on the relationship between people and places, expressed through a rich visual language of colour and abstraction.
