At Bastille in 1992, the streets filled with voices against racism. I went there with my camera, not only to follow the march but to look outward, to the edges, where life carried on. Among the crowd I found the quiet faces of bystanders—those who paused, watched, or simply passed through. These photographs hold that tension between history and the everyday, where a city’s ordinary rhythm brushed against the urgency of protest.

In 1992, Bloomsday at the Collège des Irlandais in Paris brought together lovers of James Joyce’s Ulysses for a day of readings, music, and celebration. The historic building on the Rue des Irlandais, once a home for Irish students in exile, became a lively stage for actors, scholars, and expatriates to honour Leopold Bloom’s odyssey through Dublin. In the intimate courtyard and vaulted rooms, excerpts were read in both English and French, traditional Irish tunes filled the air, and conversations flowed late into the evening—keeping alive a Parisian tradition of celebrating Joyce where history, literature, and the Irish diaspora meet.

Andrew is a social documentary photographer based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. His work primarily focuses on Protestant, Unionist, and Loyalist communities within the context of a post-conflict society. In an ever-changing Northern Ireland, where demographics shift and political landscapes change, Andrew’s work tries to capture the heartbeat of this, often marginalised, community. After studying photography at Ulster University, Andrew’s work has been featured on the BBC Iplayer, in the Irish News, Belfast Telegraph, the Belfast Archive Project, and Le Point Magazine.

This series looks at working life in Wales—cashiers, roofers, labourers, and men on construction sites. It was photographed on bulk-rolled Kodak Tri-X film, giving the images a gritty, tactile quality that reflects the physicality of the jobs. Shot with no frills, just available light and time spent watching, the pictures are a quiet record of labour—its gestures, its repetition, and its dignity.

Mostafa Mansour is a documentary photographer based in Sinai, Egypt. His current work focuses on the life of Bedouin communities from the Muzeina tribe and their relationship to their environment. Mansour’s work is mainly shot on analog film in different formats. His recent short film ‘Passage’ -an experimental short documentary film- was screened at Two.Five film festival and Zawya Film Festival in Cairo.

In 1990, I worked on a building site near Green Park in London. Many of the men were Irish, and among the concrete gang, some spoke Gaelic as they worked. Hearing the Irish language rise above the noise of drills and steel was unexpected—an echo of home in the heart of a foreign city. These photographs capture a moment when hard labour, exile, and heritage came together in the dust and light of a changing London.

Federica Corbelli is an Italian photographer and system engineer from Genoa. With roots in analog photography and darkroom printing from the 1990s, she combines technical precision with a poetic visual sensibility. Trained in photo and video post-production, she collaborated on architectural and reportage projects before embracing the digital shift—without losing the discipline and emotion of film. Her artistic project, Decoeuphoria, blends digital photography with painterly textures and dreamlike atmospheres, turning everyday traces into silent, immersive narratives.📸 Instagram: @decoeuphoria

Alex Singer Cycles, just outside Paris, is famed for its handcrafted randonneur bikes. While Alex Singer founded the shop in 1938, it was Ernest Csuka—his grandnephew—who truly shaped its legacy. A master frame builder and innovator, Ernest introduced signature design touches like the integrated stem and seat post. After taking over in 1962, he kept the tradition of French craftsmanship alive for decades, making the shop a pilgrimage site for cycling purists.
