Rasim Aslan - Urban Malfunctions
Cities are like living organisms constantly evolving, endlessly reshaping themselves. For an outsider, every city is exotic; every corner holds the promise of an undiscovered narrative.

Read MoreI often dream about returning to the house where my grandparents lived. I hear the rhythmic sound of the clock, feel the coolness, and finally breathe out. I’m back home.
Read MoreThis photographic series, Silent Beauty, is an intimate journey through unnoticed corners and silent architectures. It is the story of a curtain dancing in the breeze, of shutters that hide stories, and of walls that tell the passage of time through their textures.
Read MoreThis photographic project, entitled "Saltar El Cerco", originates from the personal sensations and emotions tied to my hometown (Zamora).

The disappearance of living species is accelerating at the rate of the various industrial revolutions. There is an urgent need to slow down, if only to grasp the current catastrophe. Two centuries ago, the aim was to discover new species. In present time, we record the ongoing and future extinctions. Whether threatened or witnessed, how are the remaining beings affected by this profound mutation? And what imaginaries could we build in response to the fragility of ecosystems in the Anthropocene? Vincent Jondeau's project poetically explores this reflection by confronting his own vision of the plant world with the botanical drawings made by his ancestor at the end of the 19th century. Through portrayals of plants encountered in his daily life on the outskirts of northern Berlin and in his family archives, he probes an era where the question of survival has overtaken that of progress.
This work explores the ephemeral traces left by fires. What was once intense, raging, and devastating becomes silence, ashes, and soon germination. Fire, though destructive, is also transient. This project attempts to capture this fragile temporality, where disappearance precedes rebirth.
In these scorched landscapes, the ephemeral is reborn: a bud, a mushroom, a breath, a colour. Nothing lasts, not even destruction.
Fire Born reveals the fragile cycle between destruction and renewal.
Snow Cows is a photographic series by Pasadena-based artist Tommy Lei that explores resilience, sanctuary, and belonging. Created at Hickory Hearth Highlands, a family-run farm sanctuary, the work centers on three Highland cows .
Read MoreWhen every place seems already seen, framed by media, consumed by algorithms, and flattened by mass tourism. This photographic project looks elsewhere for the essence of travel. Not in iconic destinations or postcard views, but in hotel corridors, rented rooms, unfamiliar laundromats, or windows opening onto undesired landscapes.

These images capture the internal struggle to remain centered amidst an overwhelming flow of information, constant bad news, and the rapid pace of modern life…”
Read More“That these photographs are personal, even intimate, can’t be denied. But they generalize: if you’re of a certain age or from a certain part of the country, many of them look like they’re pulled from your own life. I can see myself sitting at the table in the collection’s opening image excited by the $5 my great-grandfather always snuck into my hand when he shook it.”
Read MoreArctic seasonal transitions are notably intense, defined, and compared to many lower-latitude regions, time feels compressed. This is especially true during spring, summer, and autumn, when the perception of a season’s duration is shorter.
Read MoreBetween July and October 2024 I traveled between the North and the Center of Portugal. Like most travellers, I was looking for something, something elusive and indefinite, impossible to focus on.

Read MoreAn accidental injury to my left cornea left me unable to keep both eyes open for more than two weeks. During this brief but intense period, I had to keep my eyes shut to ease the pain, rendering my glasses useless.
Read MoreWhen I began working on this project, I didn’t realize that photographing my home was, in many ways, to become closer to my family, while also confronting the loneliness I often felt in their presence.
Read More“The tavern, the pub was the defining and fundamental venue of provincial life for a long time. The pub was the place where the laborers threw back the cheapest kind of shots at dawn in order to gain strength for the daily sweat…”
Read MoreParis is elusive chaos. After living in Tokyo for over 20 years, this city seemed new and complex to me. For the past two years, I have lived in the suburbs and have always looked at the city as an outsider.

During the summer in the extreme northern latitudes, the concept of night dissolves, the sun never sets, remaining suspended in an infinite twilight.
These images capture that magical and ethereal light of the midnight sun between Finland and Norway, telling the story of the encounter between nature and light, revealing surreal nuances and atmospheres that challenge the perception of day and night.
The sun, instead of disappearing beyond the horizon, remains suspended in a fragile balance, dyeing the sky with unique colors. This visual experience is a tribute to the cosmic wonder of our planet, where time seems to stop and light becomes an eternal presence, evoking the thin line between reality and dream.
