- The Forest: Exploring the Boundaries Between Nature and the Human Psyche Through Nighttime Photography by Ilya
  
  Forest is an exploration of the boundaries between the perception of nature and the human inner world, an attempt to convey the complexity of emotions and sensations that arise in moments of solitude. These works were created at night, when light and darkness form a tenuous border between reality and nightmare.
  
  Riflessi: Mirrors, Virtuality, and the Infinite Realities of Abstraction by Stefania Piccioni
  
  Much more than an aesthetic object, the mirror has fascinated and influenced the culture and art of many peoples. Historically it is the first virtuality device, or augmented reality, not only a "duplicator" of reality, but also a transformer of it.
  
  Cage, Dreams and Multiplicity by Paola Francesca Barone
  
  Paola began photographing as a child, when her father gave her his Zeiss so that she could learn to love the hobby that he so enjoyed and at the same time scolded her because she tended to frame by deviating from the canons of photography at the time.

CITY
- Street Photography by Mark Zilberman
  
  Mark Zilberman’s photography journey began when he was 6 years old. His first experience with photography happened during a trip with his mother and brother to Washington DC to see the Japanese Cherry Trees in bloom. As they walked past a drugstore window, he saw a bright yellow box and said he wanted it.
  
  Street Melancholy by abstract street photographer Stefan Czurda
  
  As I walk through the streets of my hometown Vienna these days, I find myself increasingly attuned to a certain melancholy that seems to hang over the city. It’s a sensation that has grown stronger with time, fueled by a growing awareness of how impersonal and detached our interactions have become in this digital age.
  
  Vincent Lariau: Reinventing Reality through Urban Photography
  
  Vincent Lariau, a passionate photographer for nearly 30 years, has dedicated his life to capturing and reinventing the essence of urban landscapes. Self-taught after spending a year in a preparatory art workshop for the Fine Arts, he lives and works between France and Ecuador.

  (Hand)Made Hamilton by Ian Ross Pettigrew
  
  In an age dominated by technology and automation, where AI, self-driving cars, and robotic systems have become commonplace, (Hand)Made Hamilton poses a thought-provoking question: Can machines truly replace the artistry and skill of human hands?
STORY
- Georgia youth after elections by Aude Osnowycz
  
  A wind of rebellion is blowing through the streets of Tblisi, the youth are trembling but ready to fight, because “What is happening in Georgia is quite simply the takeover of the country by Vladimir Putin” exclaims Luka, a young 24-year-old stylist. A situation very reminiscent of that of Ukraine before the war.

  Fauxliage: Disguised Cell Phone Towers of the American West by Annette LeMay Burke
  
  Fauxliage documents the proliferation of disguised cell phone towers in the American West. By attempting to conceal an unsightly yet essential technology of the modern world, our landscapes are now sown with a quirky and unsettling mosaic of masquerading palms, evergreens, flagpoles, crosses, cacti, and more.
AI
- Junk Food Gourmet; The massacre of the almost innocent
  
  Undoubtedly, we have a public health problem in our health care system, which is still not very visible at the moment. It is not a disease per se, although this phenomenon is the cause of many major diseases and often even deaths. I am talking about obesity and in particular childhood obesity. According to the World Health Organization, 2.8 million people die each year from obesity.
  
  Niko & Adriana: Bored of being wild
  
  Bored of being wild speaks of the wild side and the domesticated side that coexist in each of us as individual and social beings. The book visualizes the eternal struggle of many people to maintain their own uniqueness despite the “system” in which we have to fit.
  
  Balkan Pray: An AI Project Capturing Nostalgia and Hope in a Fast-Paced Present by Kostis Argyriadis
  
  In a world that every day hopes tomorrow will be better, in a world that remembers, perhaps mistakenly, that the past was better, in a world that is speeding every second now, hope is the only thing that is lasting.

LENS
- Home
  
  Each of us needs to feel at home to be well. The concept of "home" is intimately linked to a spiritual state of well-being. To feel protected, to feel welcomed, to feel understood, to feel free to be who we intimately feel we are, to feel oneself in essence, to feel authentic; to connect with the harmonious universe, with thought, with memories, with hope for the future, with one's roots; to get rid of fears, of appearance, of complacency, of defensive armor.
  
  A story of light – A book by Jan Nemec
  
  I will never know if are the things that are looking for you and make sure that you find them, or it is you that are looking for them (sometimes without knowing it) and they let themselves be found.... this is what I felt when, last spring in Madrid, during PhotoEspaña 2023
  
  Story of a lost love
  
  There is nothing more heartbreaking than a love lost without having had the chance to be born. I'll tell you a love story like those you will surely have seen in some films, a heartbreaking and at the same time tender and moving love story.

  Bosch Redux: Reimagining the Surreal Worlds of Hieronymus Bosch through the Lens of Lori Pond
  
  I became fascinated with Hieronymus Bosch’s “Garden of Earthly Delights” as a teenager. His limitless imagination and intricately detailed images captured my mind. I put these details center stage, using models, wardrobe, special prosthetics and specially-built props to create photographic facsimiles of Bosch’s original paintings.
