world her work has been published time cnn vice magazine du monde die zeit de standaard daily mail and esquire about the photograph this photo is part of my series mama africa a documentary on transgender women in south africa s townships and rural communities due to the strong social stigma that are attached to transgenderism in african culture it is a topic in need of awareness in order to provoke social change traditional beliefs entrenched in african culture consider nonconforming gender and gender expression un african contradicting one of the most liberal constitutions in the world in terms of lgbt rights hate crimes and institutionalized homophobia are common phenomenon and often force individuals to conform their gender according to society s standards despite the harsh realities that transgender women face in south africa my project resulted in a colourful and celebratory series it documents four individuals in their endeavors to integrate themselves into a hetero patriarchal society while experiencing a surprisingly high level of acceptance one of my main characters is tulie a 23 year old transgender woman who was awarded miss tran s and regularly participates as a model in fashion shows she is very popular amongst her wider community and was joking around with her friend at the time the photo was taken i would have loved to understand more of what they were saying since most of it was in xhosa nevertheless i picked up that many of their conversations were evolving around men or relationships it was a very positive and relaxed atmosphere i always felt very comfortable and safe walking around with tulie be it through the township where she lives or the rural areas of tshabo where she grew up and where this photograph was taken on that day tulie visited tshabo to help her family with preparations for a traditional ceremony where the tombstones of recently deceased family members are unveiled i was particularly intrigued by the contrast of tulie being a very fashionable self confident and outgoing character in a rural and conservative environment adding to the ambiguity and fluidity of gender while challenging the stereotypical notions of african gender identity share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on tumblr opens in new window tumblr more share on pinterest opens in new

where the train lines ended i never quite new what i would find when i disembarked and walked the city exiting astana station i headed south and it was not long before i reached the ishim river the water freezes from late november to march becoming an icy thoroughfare i followed the bends in the river passing skaters hockey players and fisherman before coming across a small pool in the ice i backed up and watched as two women walked down the road dressed only in their swimwear and trainers it was bitterly cold that day but it did not deter the two bathers share this share on x opens in

graves projects about the photograph i was born raised and reside in new york in the summer of 2012 my girlfriend was studying abroad in china and i made a plan to visit on the backend of her trip we decided to organize a trip that would have us visit hong kong shanghai and beijing beijing is a congested difficult city to navigate without a knowledge of the language and that was made even more difficult being a black man i am convinced that black people are seldom seen in the city i was followed stereotyped and stared at i hope that this was more from ignorance then racism anyway i always try to make the best of bad situations and said i will photograph this place as well as i can and was lucky enough to make a few nice photographs this photograph is common across the world but the pure mass of wires stood out to me as a cultural signifier i consider myself a large format photographer but about a decade ago i realized i also wanted the ability to walk 20 miles a day making photographs especially on vacation to places that i will most likely never see again so i leave my view camera inside for portraiture and the occasional landscape within walking distance of my apartment this photograph was taken with a dslr however i still see in view camera format share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on tumblr

the globe s office is right off the water just a few blocks from the beach it was an overcast slow day in the newsroom and after sitting restless behind my computer for a while i went out looking for a feature in my experience i always have more luck finding features when walking instead of driving so i took a stroll through some dorchester neighborhoods and found myself at castle island beach the only people out in the sand that day were this lovely haitian family who welcomed me to take photos while they buried the little ones in the sand i sometimes get nervous approaching people for features but i always think back on photos like this as a reminder of the work that can come from feature hunting share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window

and bars across the u s in this case i heard there was a dance after the eugene pro rodeo so i stayed to check it out this was a very different venue than i had ever shot in it was actually a huge indoor horse arena the guys were real rodeo cowboys and were comfortable with the cameras some had remembered me from behind the chutes during the rodeo it s always nice to have free run of a place
