Susan Meiselas: At her pop-up studio in Marrakech’s Medina, Susan Meiselas photographed local women, then gave them the option of having the image displayed or taking 20 dirhams. For those that chose the latter, the 20 dirham note was featured instead of the portrait, resulting in a compelling piece of social storytelling.
Mikhael Subotzky: Taking to the back of a motorbike, Mikhael Subotzky mounted six cameras to a makeshift 'magic wand'. The resulting film - a still from which is pictured here - made for a fascinating, and at times dizzying, insight.
Abbas: ‘The shadow, a dark light becomes a metaphor for the city,’ says Iranian native Abbas, whose dramatic black and white images feature the narrow, walled streets of the Medina.
Jim Goldberg: The offering from Jim Goldberg is a range of monochrome and colour images that portray everyday life in the Moroccan city. ‘Respect is accepting everything as it is and not looking away,’ he says.
Mark Power: Beautifully capturing the city’s hues, Mark Power merged images in a series of impressive, large-format composites.
