Street Photography nominee

This is a series that explores the relationship between light and shadow, as well as the dynamics between urban space and people. A high contrast is used to emphasize the geometric shapes of cityscape, so as to bring another perspective to look at the city life.

Passionately curious, Iris sees the world as a big, complex puzzle in which everything is waiting to be explored, but it is also a place filled with numerous contradictions. Photography is her way to understand this complicated world, and a medium to share her thoughts with others. This mindset translates into shoots with rich stories and varying moods. She is particularly fascinated by the connection, or disconnection, of people with one another and their surroundings. Iris’ photos strive to provoke emotions, and imagination as to what the story could be, so we can all spot the interesting things in our seemingly ordinary existence.
