Night Lights — These are the gestures of men and women who watch over us. They take care of the sick, the old, the wounded, the dying, and the newly born.
Given Data — Six photographers, Elena Anosova, Matthieu Gafsou, Cédric Gerbehaye, Simona Ghizzoni, Christian Lutz, John Vink and the graphic artist Chiquinquirá García, found themselves faced with regional statistical data, the starting point for their exploration.
