The collective is extremely happy to welcome another new member: Kirsty Greenland !
Kirsty is a teacher and street photographer currently living in Perth, Australia.
She loves street photography because she is attracted to the randomness and beauty of unposed moments. She loves colour and movement and the play between light and shadows. Inspired by exploring Perth’s beaches in summer and the high contrast summer light, she is also completely unable to resist a street parade or a festival.
She has had work featured in various international exhibitions, including exhibiting with Unexposed Collective and Women Street Photographers. She was also featured in the Women Street Photographers book and Reclaim the Street.
Through The Lands is delighted to welcome Brad Jones as a new member of TTL.
Brad was born in Springfield, Missouri, and raised in suburban Memphis, Tennessee, where he studied illustration and photography. He has been working as a photographer in New York for the last 13 years.
In 2015, he began a personal project documenting his annual travels with family between Spain and Puerto Rico in the project called Dos Mundos.
In 2018, he began documenting the details of everyday life in New York City. This became the project A Fragile Utopia. He resides in Brooklyn with his wife and young son.
We are happy to announce that our member Francesca Chiacchio is part of the book 10 Street Photography. Published by Psychographics, it is a photography volume that offers a fascinating and surprising look into the world of street photography through the lens of 10 talented photographers.

Our member Yiannis Yiasaris presents his new book "Insignificant Moments".
"Street photography sees the world from an altered perspective. I capture insignificant yet extraordinary moments on an ordinary day. These insignificant moments exist for a fleeting second or two and then pass. I try to connect with them to see their hidden beauty, to capture them permanently.
This is where insignificant moments are made decisive." (Yiannis Yiasaris)

After a successful crowdfunding round, our member Merlin Meuris is proud to announce his new book entitled The Glass Between Us.
The book traces several months of life in Brussels during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.
"A reflection in a window, a border that separates us and protects us from an invisible virus. During this year, I walked the streets of Brussels to document the daily life of residents during the pandemic period.
Using glass through my photos has allowed me to maintain a physical barrier against the virus while maintaining visual proximity to the people I have photographed.
Glass can be a window, a wall, a mirror that isolates us but also connects us through a visual link." (Merlin Meuris)
All photos were taken between March and November 2020. The book is limited to 100 copies and includes about thirty photos. For more information, please visit https://merlinmeuris.org/

Our member Diego Fedele has just published a new zine entitled The City Loop.
" The circuit of the five stations of Melbourne’s CBD, known as City Loop, gave me a path to follow and I’ve collected spontaneous moments on its streets. Southern Cross, Melbourne Central, Flinders street, among Melbourne’s most famous landmarks, where locals and tourists blend together. With the purpose to show a personal vision of the city, that reveals different kinds of light, corners, situations and to create a tension that tends to lead me somewhere but it does not.
So does a loop.
I would compare it to the “Agora-Phobia” itself, a loop of fears which makes you not be able to evolve, to find the way to live with, because when you are about to take a walk, shoulders tense with emotions, it brings up the bad experiences you had and convinces you to stay at home.
In December 2019, chosen the title, the series slowly started to take shape, however I unconsciously started the project on my arrival in Melbourne in 2018, where I walked on the same streets of the city, whenever I could. Yet it became my way out of the loop." (Diego Fedele)
