Award-winning photographer Nish Nalbandian has spent three years covering the war in Northern Syria and the refugees from that war in Turkey. His debut monograph, A Whole World Blind, entwines documentary photography and portraiture with oral testimony, essays, stories, and memoir to create a vivid picture of the reality of this war. The book depicts fighters on the frontline as well as everyday people eking out a living amidst the ruins. Fascinated by the dynamic of life that continued through conflict, Nalbandian's photographs humanize what often read as impersonal headlines about...

The Lumen Seed sensitively depicts a cultural dialogue taking place before a backdrop of offenses against the Australian continent, as well as a history of systematic discrimination against indigenous peoples on the part of the country's white population.

Operating from a tent perched on the edge of the beach, he worked with strangers to paint a portrait of the colorful and diverse fantasy that is Rockaway Beach.

Having worked under renowned British fashion photographer Craig McDean, Eeles has a knack for creating images with sharp, fashion-world glamour, even when working with a raw beach culture (New York style).
