The Eye Photography: World Photography Art History, Latest News and Photography Events

Psyche We would like to stop it, manipulate it to go back or out of curiosity to see the future. At the first heartbeat, our time on earth is numbered. Through a character named Psyche, I explore these moments when time catches up with us. The constant reminder that we are not immortal. I use symbolism, which is why Psyche is linked to butterflies, a symbol of transformation and evolution.

Shadows of Solitude: a melody of light and shadow The project is a a series of black and white photographs that are both beautiful and thought-provoking, candid and dreamlike. Images are often grainy, dark, and mysterious; Lukin’s work has often been described as an outward expression of an inner self. Lukin captures candid, fleeting, dreamlike moments in the streets of Bangkok. His open-ended narratives of solitary figures offer a glimpse…

Crossing Through my photographs, I've sought to express what fascinates me about ferry travel. It's always a special, euphoric moment to leave the familiar, confined space of the car to join these immense boats. We take advantage of the last moments of the day to admire the horizon as far as the eye can see, before returning to the cramped confines of our cabin. Tomorrow, the journey will come to…

Silent agreements-Marrickville-50-Home My Marrickville photo project was almost entirely based upon the migrant community I grew up in. Our parents had come to Sydney with a cast iron Old World identity. It gave them comfort and a sense of security in understanding that they still had their own community. Despite the incomprehensible uncertainty of the radically new-world city swirling around them, they found solace in their solidarity and familiar rituals…

French Textures French Textures is a collection of photographs hyper focused on the streets and walls of Paris, France, taken from a wandering pedestrian’s point of view in September 2023. A visiting flaneur takes 150 thousand steps around the city, 90 years after Brassai, through doorways and sidewalks, interior day, exterior night, noticing the effects of weather, time, and man on the texture of the city’s surfaces.

Volver a Chile My father was born in Chile. Like many others, he had to flee the dictatorship to take refuge in Europe. And like many refugees, he left a part of himself behind in his country. I've been travelling regularly to Chile for several years now. The landscapes and history there give me a better understanding of my father, his story and also my own. Each trip is an…

Souls of the Dead Forest The project is inspired by a popular theme – exploring yourself, listening to your subtle mental processes. This is a call for the viewer to comprehend and identify what is hidden from himself in the basements of the unconscious, a reference to deep prehistoric fears. In our troubled times, the collective fear of the insecurity of the world around us shackles us from the inside,…

Fabulous Faces of Classic Hollywood (published by ACC Art Books) contains over 200 photographs from the internationally renowned John Kobal Foundation, taken by leading Hollywood portrait photographers during the motion picture industry’s golden years of 1920 to 1960. In 2018, The Hood Museum at Dartmouth College in the USA acquired the foundation’s print archive so the images in this book had to be selected entirely from the little-seen negatives, long…

Atelier EXB's new monograph, Shima no Ama, Kusukasu Uraguchi, accompanies the exhibition presented this summer at the Rencontres d'Arles. For several centuries, ama – Japanese fishermen-divers – have nourished the Japanese imagination. These freedivers collect abalone, shells and algae, the sale of which ensures them financial autonomy within their household. Since the late 1950s and for more than thirty years, Kusukazu Uraguchi (1922-1988) photographed them in the Shima region, along…
