"In this warm-toned photograph, a tranquil moment of a man is captured. On a sunny afternoon, the protagonist of the photo, a man dressed in a khaki trench coat, is walking alone along the stone path beside the Yangtze River, leading his bicycle by hand. Behind him stands the majestic Yangsigang Yangtze River Bridge. The colors of the bridge, bicycle, and the boy's attire echo each other. In the distance, the fog-enshrouded high-rises of Wuhan hint at the unknown future and the man's longing for it."

"Early morning in Agra, Staring at the wonderful Taj Mahal building at this time of the day, with this exceptional sunrise light, can't leave you unmoved. I know this monument has been photographed so many times that it's quite difficult to find an original way of capturing it. And I saw these three Indian guys, at peace in front of the building, so full of peace, fraternity and wiseness that I thought that was the perfect scene for the Taj."

"London is one of the major cities of the world today, but it would not have existed without the River Thames. The river has acted as a source of fresh water, an artery of communication and transportation, and a physical and psychological boundary. Part of the river is tidal and this forms a natural harbour. Since pre-Roman times the river has been the major communication and trade route between Britain and the rest of the world. These stories, countless whimsical, idiosyncratic and tragic happenings, all make up a history of one of the most important rivers in the world."

"The primary goal of this project is to focus on a range of women of all ages and skill levels who love the sea and have a passion for surfing. It also aims to offer them the opportunity to express themselves in a predominantly male-dominated sport. This photographic project is set in South Devon and Cornwall, and 12 women were photographed and then were asked to write down their thoughts about the sport, which offered them the opportunity to speak with a direct and unfiltered voice. The ages of the women range are between 19 and 77 and while their reasons for surfing vary, so do the emotions."

"Returning to my home country, for the first time after the lockdowns and 4 years of separation was a brutal reminder of how utterly homesick I was. Reconnecting with family and friends, was incredibly precious but at the same time also heartbreakingly painful. What followed was a time of feeling completely disconnected and lonely. The need to rebuild intimate relationships sent me into a desperate spiral of trying to solve an unsolvable situation. This series explores quite literally the shape of things as they burst, but also metaphorically what it's like to be an expat."
