All About Photo Presents ’Alpine Hiatus’ by Filippo Poli
In Alpine Hiatus: The Snow No Longer Tastes Like Snow, Italian photographer and architect Filippo Poli turns his camera toward a landscape caught between memory and mutation. The project unfolds as both personal archaeology and ecological reflection — an inquiry into what remains when the snow, once a symbol of purity and permanence, becomes an artifact of artifice. Winner of the April 2026 All About Photo Solo Exhibition contest, Poli’s work traces the dissonance between remembrance and reality, offering a haunting meditation on disappearance.

All About Photo Presents ’ Civilization’ by Damien Aubin
In Civilization, Damien Aubin turns his lens toward environments shaped not by nature, but by ambition. These are places engineered at a scale that exceeds the individual — infrastructures, industrial complexes, vast architectural systems that dwarf the human body and often eclipse it entirely. There are no protagonists here. No narratives unfolding in real time. Instead, Aubin photographs what remains when activity recedes: structures that continue to stand, operate, or simply endure.
