Being humans

When it comes to urban street photography, images tend to depict how people live and interact nowadays, meaning that a certain sense of multitude, dynamism and technology dominates the narrative. Social media has widely spread an idea of who we are through the means of digital, ephemeral imagery. This series of images depicts moments that contradict that notion and reveal how human conditions such as solitude, melancholy and introversion persist, being still valid and present in everyday contemporary life.
