Through conceptual imagery, intimate portraits, and reflections in writing from a wide variety of women and girls ages 13-81, artist and former actor and model Jamie Schofield Riva presents an in-depth exploration of what it's like as a girl trying to navigate a world full of "preconceived notions of what it means to be a woman."

Tariq Zaidi: North Korea The People’s Paradise
In January 2020, North Korea officially closed its borders. But even before that date, photographing the enigmatic landscapes of North Korea posed immense challenges due to the regime's strict control and prohibition of unauthorized photography.

Hong Kong by Mikko Takkunen
In his debut photobook 'Hong Kong' (Kehrer Verlag, April 2024), Finnish photographer and New York Times' photo editor Mikko Takkunen captures one of the world’s great metropolises in the aftermath of political protests and on the brink of a pandemic. Inspired by New York School masters like Louis Faurer and Saul Leiter, he presents Hong Kong in a new light, exploring hidden perspectives and moods. His photographs, balancing between documentary and subjective, are accompanied by an essay by Geoff Dyer. Amidst the city's uncertainties in 2020 and facing the impending relocation of his family overseas, Takkunen felt an urgent need to document the city while he still could. 'Hong Kong' is a poignant farewell, encapsulating his love for the city and concerns about what might be lost as it undergoes irreversible changes.
Christer Strömholm
Christer Strömholm is recognised as one of the major figures of 20th century European photography.

With an unmistakable sensitivity to human suffering, based on his personal experience, he took photography in a new direction. Sean O’Hagan, writing in The Guardian, has described him “as the father of Swedish photography both for his abiding influence and for his role as a teacher.”

The Enemy Within: The Miners’ Strike 1984/85 by Michael Kerstgens
On March 6th 1984 miners at Cortonwood Colliery in Yorkshire went on strike. Six days later, on March 12th, NUM President, Arthur Scargill, made the strike official across Britain. And so began the UK’s biggest strike since the General Strike of 1926. It ran for almost a year until March 1985 - a year of bitter conflict between the miners and Margaret Thatcher and her government and marked the end of the mining era in Britain.
Burnt House Lane by Michelle Sank
My work has always encompassed the presentation of identity within both portrait and landscape, creating sociological and psychological narratives borne from my upbringing in South Africa. Being the daughter of Latvian refugees there and witnessing the injustices of Apartheid has led to my interest and empathy in documenting the human condition and those often marginalised, affording them a positive voice and presence. This Kickstarter will support the book publication of a new body of work that documents such a community: Burnt House Lane - which is situated close to where I currently live in Exeter, UK.
