WINNERS

Dreams and Fears

  • Photographer
    Frank Berzieri, France, Metropolitan
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

I started this series in 2021. For me, cities are built as much on functionality as on our imagination. Therefore, my city-photographs talk about urbanism and also about our dreams and our fears. I found the traces of our dreams and our fears in the decorations of building facades, the urban furniture. They talk a lot about nature, water, seasides, trees, flowers, conviviality. My photographs are taken in Paris, Lyon, Chartres, Calais ans other French cities, but I avoid any geographical reference because I seek more to photograph the traces of our dreams & fears than specific places.
