from The Traveller series by Birte Kaufmann
The Travellers by Birte Kaufmann
German photographer Birte Kaufmann is based in Cologne, Germany, documents themes of identity and social marginalization through her empathetic portrait and documentary photography.
The Travellers (2011–ongoing) gives insight into the everyday life of Ireland's largest minority group, now looking for a new identity within 21st-century Western European society. The travellers live in a kind of parallel world to which outsiders have little access. Over time, and through living alongside one large family, Birte gained their trust, and with it, a rare closeness to their everyday life.
From What We Choose Not to See series by Naïma El Kadi
What We Choose Not to See by Naïma El Kadi
Moroccan born photographer Naima El Kadi is based in Antwerp, Belgium. Through analogue experiments and field research, she develops a visual language where time, material, and memory come together.
What We Choose Not to See focuses on former landfill sites in Flanders, Belgium. Naima develops analogue photographs using polluted water collected from these sites — chemical residues react directly with the photographic emulsion, leaving visible marks on the images. The pollution becomes part of the image-making process, not as an illustration, but as a physical presence.
From the Take Notice series by Olivier Tuinier
Take Notice by Olivier Tuinier
Olivier Tuinier is an Amsterdam-born and based photographer focused on documentary and street photography, with a soft spot for faded glory.
Take Notice is an ongoing series in which Olivier documents small, often overlooked scenes encountered in the streets. Drawn to the unspectacular and the unfiltered, the series reflects the real not by documenting dramatic events or obvious beauty, but by highlighting the subtle and honest poetry found in ordinary spaces. In a visually saturated world, Take Notice is, above all, an invitation to pause and really look.
Join us for the opening of the exhibition and meet our incredible winners! The exhibition will be on view from 11th April until 16th May.
We are open by appointment.
Limited edition and unique polaroid prints are available to purchase.
