A Small Pool of White Light by Photographer Jesse Boyd-Reid
“I follow the ebb and flow of my family’s passage through life by photographing scenes of intimacy, belief, ceremony and stillness that I have been permitted to document (and at times restage) in an effort to understand the range of experiences that make up a human life. In this process I am both participant and observer, experiencing and reflecting. Documenting the near and familiar relies on the idea of life as art, and through this line of enquiry my work raises questions about queerness, connection and family.

Cartographies by Louis De Belle
“Cartographies is a series of photographs shot in the streets of New York. Its focus lies in reducing visual information to a minimum.

Yopparai Tengoku (Drunkard’s Heaven) by Kenji Kawamoto
“”My photographs are a record of the people who have reached their limit and exhausted their strength after the daily grind. Everyone has different burdens, but everyone lives at a frantic pace. People drink with friends as a reward for the hard day’s work and face a new day’s work like warriors. A lot of people struggle through such work situations. I took these pictures with a true feeling of respect for the people in them. I don’t believe the state my subjects are in is shabby in any way. I can feel they have experienced hardships and fatigue to end up like this.” (artist statement)
