Film photography by Dima Braven: strangers, perspectives, doors,
portraits, and small city fragments from Thailand, Bangkok, Istanbul,
Cambodia, Qatar, Sri Lanka, and France, 2017–ongoing — not
a chronicle of where I’ve been, but a handful of ongoing
series. Curated as they’re scanned.
Also known as "Look Around" — six years of photographing strangers across Southeast Asia, Istanbul, and beyond. A study in loneliness, inequality, and the traditions that hold people together anyway.
2017–2022 — Bangkok, Istanbul, Cambodia, Qatar, Sri Lanka, France
Lines, buildings, and people seen from a distance — an ongoing look at how cities shape the people who live in them, and how people shape the city back.
2017–ongoing — Bangkok, Copenhagen, Kandy, Moscow, Istanbul, Cambodia, St. Petersburg
Doors, gates, and thresholds — collected one frame at a time.
An ongoing, loosely-titled series — small things caught mid-thought.
