ParisNewYorkPortraits","description":"\u003cb\u003eAuthor: Ashkan Sahihi (ed.)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith 'ParisNewYorkPortraits', photographer Ashkan Sahihi presents a compelling portrait series that challenges and refines the way we see. Envisioning a radiant and optimistic future, the book brings together 38 young people in their twenties from Paris and New York – a generation shaped by pandemic isolation and the constant exposure of digital hypervisibility. The backcover features a reflection by best-selling author Ocean Vuong.Captured in analogue black-and-white, without artificial light or digital alteration, each face resists easy categorisation. Ethnic background, identity, and belonging remain fluid rather than fixed. With remarkable sensitivity and restraint, Sahihi creates images that privilege presence over performance.Accompanied by three thought-provoking essays, the volume reflects on contemporary image cultures, social media self-staging, and the question of what it means today not just to be looked at but truly seen. 'ParisNewYorkPortraits' is a celebration of youth, individuality, and hope amid the complexities of our time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9783422804289.
