PHOTO OF THE YEAR

This is a religious ritual. In Islam, a commemoration event is held by some groups for the day the children and grandchildren of Muhammad were killed. These commemorations are especially common in Iran and Turkey. This photo is also a photo taken on those commemorative days.. It symbolizes the bondage experienced during the chain slaughter. I took this photo in Istanbul.

CHRONICLES - ANA ABRÃO Combining both portrait photography and a seasoned traveller, Ana Abrão regards photography as a way to express and showcase the beauty of the world we live in but also the cultural aspects of different societies and peoples, whenever possible stirring up discussion about human rights issues with her imagery.

Graduated in Psychology and with a PhD in Psychology/Informatics, Ana Abrão reduced her investment in her career as a university professor, after eleven years of teaching in the Algarve/Portugal, to follow her love for Photography. She has been professionally engaged in photography for about thirteen years.

The author is the curator of the Olhares.com photography community and represents Portugal in international photography competitions, having received several awards (21 medals and 61 honorable mentions). Occasionally, she participates in photo salons as a member of national and international juries.

She has the “Excellence” recognition in photographic art by the Photographic Society of America, as well as “Artist” and “Excellence” by the European association International Federation of Photographic Art. She is currently the representative of the Photographic Society of America, in Portugal.

CHRONICLES - ANA ABRÃO Hi Ana Abrão, give us some background, how long ago did you start shooting and what made you start in this world of photography?

The short storytelling...

All my first clicks were a pure joy. I had a great fun with macrophotography, then moved on to birds, landscapes, night photography, light painting, studio, started stock photography and only then moved on to portraits. So as you can see I have had a lot of pleasant challenges that gave me the basis and the courage to, a few years later, to leave my profession from university teacher and become a photographer. It was 13 years of amazing experiences as a full time photographer that reached its peak with the launch of a photography and travel stories book called "Outros Mundos" (Other Worlds).

Do you remember the click that sparked your passion for photography?

I would say that a dragon-fly sparkled my passion for photography while India sparkled my love for portraits.

One day I was walking on the roads, through the suburbs of a small Indian city. At a particular time I was looking to an old man that had such an exquisite feature. I could already foresee on him a very good portrait I then realised I wanted his picture so badly, but being shy I was afraid to make the move. I ended up pointing the camera and through the viewfinder I noticed he had done a movement with his hands, although I did not understand it. So I took just one picture. Was he saying he did not wish to be photographed? Later that day, while I was looking at the picture taken on the computer, I realised he had shaped his hands and fingers mimicking a photography camera and had taken an imaginary picture of myself. He was smiling at the same time with such a kind face while taking the imaginary photo. But as he had no teeth and his hand covered half of his face, I could not read his expression. This happened 15 years ago, yet it was the beginning of a special relationship with people and portraits.

Who are your main influences on photography? And outside of it?

My main influence on photography was my mentor, Fernando Quintino. He showed me the firstt steps and taught me how to master the equipment. With his help, I learned photography in the best way possible: having fun, every day with a different challenge/subject.

On the other hand, I can't deny, if you take a look at my book "Outros Mundos", you will see why Steve McCurry sparkled my love for travel photography.

CHRONICLES - ANA ABRÃO I notice that most of your photos are documentary. Why pick documentary photography? Love at first sight or did you discover your relationship with documentary photography over time?

When we are beginners, we keep chasing for good photos. A photo with the "wow factor" is our main goal.

At a certain point, I realised that making a good photo was just not enough. So I felt challenged about doing series of images instead. When you make a series, you naturally start thinking how to put together and how to visually tell a story, the best way to describe a character or something that you witnessed. Therefore, when you bluntly capture the world the way it is and these images contribute to inform your audience about the hidden corners of this world we live in, you are naturally doing documentary photography.

Documentary photography combined with travel is the most beautiful challenge I've ever had in photography. I think that traveling should be part of everybody's life experience. Leaving our own daily life and observing other ways of living, expands our view of the world.

Traveling allows us to have unprecedented freedom. We can let go of strict social rules, established schedules, formatted behaviours It all starts when we observe that in our suitcase we put several pairs of shoes and several clothing options. Yet, we "discover" that we only have one pair of feet, therefore, one pair of shoes should enough for the trip.

Why do you opt to be a solo traveller and why do you go to remote places in order to photograph?

I love to travel with someone else if the goal is to relax or to have fun.

If my main goal is to photograph a certain ethnic minority, then I need to go where there is no tourism and where tradition is still preserved. If there are no tourists, the kind of travel and the kind of situation I can get into, is not for everyone. It can be demanding and challenging as, sometimes, it can be very basic and uncomfortable, so I prefer to face these situations alone.

On the other hand, these are the places where the connection with local people are genuine, the photo opportunities are unique and the stories are unusual.

CHRONICLES - ANA ABRÃO The photographers' creative process is often overlooked. Can you tell me a little about your processes? Not in terms of equipment or technique, but in terms of motivations, from finding a place to photograph to the final photograph.

Whenever you go out to photograph, have you studied everything already or do you let yourself be carried away by the moment?

Nowadays, my creative process is driven by storytelling. I love to tell stories, both visually and written.

Getting a good image is as important to me as getting a good story. In order to do so, I let myself flow open-minded into the experiences. That's all I can do because I cannot create the stories myself. The beginning of a story can be anything, at anytime. A sadhu offering me a hot cup of tea can be the starting point of a great story, or even a young girl collecting cow waste to dry and sell, yet another great start.

Problem is, stories can not be planned. They just happen. I can not plan a photography session, pay for the portrait and go away because, this way, I would mess up with the spontaneity of my relationship with local people and no genuine story would come up this way.

So, this is my strategy: I interact with people and use these spontaneous stories and it's sequence of images to compose the book.

CHRONICLES - ANA ABRÃO I notice that Ana Abrão regularly photographs Asia. Any special reason?

Absolutely! Asia is all in one: rich culture, safe for solo women travellers, wonderful food, people super friendly with portraits, fair costs and, the main reason, my heart is there. As I mentioned, storytelling is important to my me and Asia is where I get the most unusual stories for sharing in my book

Despair (Angola)

www.instagram.com/joaocoelho_photography/

CHRONICLES -JOÃO COELHO I was born in Angola, but the war of independence in that country forced my family to restart their lives in Portugal in the mid-70s, where I graduated in Law, developed an important part of my professional career in law and banking, and where I took my first steps into the world of photography. In 2007, responding to a strong call from my homeland, I returned to Angola where I am still living and working on auditing and consulting projects focused on the modernization and institutional development of the public sector. The demands of my professional activity and perhaps some fear of photographing in an unsafe environment have led me, unfortunately, to turn my back to photography for quite some time. The rediscovery of that passion as I realized the variety of motives that surrounded me and the gradual release of the fears that blocked me was an extremely enriching and rewarding process. Today, whether telling stories through photography, doing curation in some groups and websites, or simply sharing experiences and achievements with a fantastic community of colleagues and friends, photography is an essential dimension in my life as a form of personal fulfillment and inspiration. My photographic work has also had the merit of shaping my way of being, having radically transformed the way I position myself in the world and how I look at everything around me. Today, after having looked into the eyes of survival and resilience, I am a simpler person, more restrained in my aspirations, and I value more the little things and the small attitudes and gestures that can change the world.

CHRONICLES -JOÃO COELHO Hi João Coelho, give us some background, how long ago did you start shooting and what made you start in this world of photography?

I have always felt a huge attraction for various expressions of art, especially painting, and photography came naturally along that path. I started in the world of photography with the purchase of my first camera in the 1980s, but I remember devouring all the books and magazines about photography that I could find long before that. Once I was comfortable with the technique, after a long learning curve made of countless trials and errors, my first photography was focused on nature and travel, having published some articles in specialized magazines in Portugal in the 90s. Due to professional commitments, photography was absent from my life until about 3 years ago, when I can say I started doing "serious" photography, driven by an enormous desire to portray people and tell stories that stood out for their originality and documentary interest, studying light in studio projects and spending time on image processing using suitable software.

Do you remember the click that sparked your passion for photography?

Although I have been doing photography for several years, the click that most significantly awakened my passion and led me to do that "serious" photography, happened on a beach on the outskirts of Luanda, the capital of Angola. On this beach, several women work from sunup to sundown breaking shells from mabangas, a mollusk that is highly prized as an appetizer. The strength, resilience and self-help that these women show, and the love and dedication they provide to their children while working in such harsh conditions, is absolutely remarkable. I considered myself privileged to be able to witness this, a scenery of incalculable documental richness, and this perception triggered in me an overwhelming desire to convey photographically the feelings and emotions I felt at that moment. In fact, it was not a click, it was a spark that triggered several clicks.

Who are your main influences on photography? And outside of it?

Josef Koudelka, Sebastião Salgado, Robert Frank and Dorothea Lange are my greatest references and influences in photography. Beyond the universe of photography, the writing of Hemmingway, Steibenck and Kerouac have always had a great imprint on me, just as the painting of Pollock and the music and attitude of Tom Waits strongly resonate with me

CHRONICLES -JOÃO COELHO I notice that most of your photos are documentary. Why choose documentary photography? Love at first sight or did you discover your relationship with documentary photography over time?

Actually, my photography started by focusing on nature and travel, having published several articles in specialized magazines in Portugal in the 90s. For professional reasons, photography was dormant in my life until about 3 years ago, when I realized the richness of the characters and stories of Africa, and the need to free myself from the fears of photographing in Angola, a country where safety is unfortunately a serious problem. The discovery of how people live and work in such precarious conditions, literally on the edge of survival, but with an admirable resilience, quickly impelled me to the need to portray the human condition and to tell their stories, be they stories of suffering and anguish, or of joy and love. More than a mere expression of aesthetic beauty, my photography thus became an instrument to convey messages or calls about injustices and inequalities.

I also notice that you have a special taste for black and white photography, why this choice?

The choice of B&W allows one to go beyond the mere representation of reality that color photography provides, that is, it enables the photographer to make a personal interpretation of that reality. This interpretation is critical in my genre of photography, which is fundamentally documentary and where the way I tell the stories and convey the messages has a very specific relevance. B&W processing allows greater control of hues, contrasts and lighting, allowing you to add more drama, create more empathy, or simply elicit emotions or feelings more effectively. On the other hand, B&W has always held an enormous fascination for me, for its timelessness and since my greatest references are in B&W.

The photographers' creative process is often overlooked. Can you tell me a little about your processes? Not in terms of equipment or technique, but in terms of motivations, from finding a place to photograph to the final photograph.

My creative process is very much influenced by the environment in which I findd myself. Photographing in Angola is not easy and implies most of the time, very careful planning and preparation that can take a long time. The resistance to photography and to the photographer are enormous due to the local culture and beliefs, and on the other hand, the serious economic situation in which the country finds itself has substantially worsened the safety-related risks.

CHRONICLES -JOÃO COELHO For these reasons, it is simply impossible to freely go out into the street and shoot randomly. I have to carefully identify and study the places where I will be shooting, do a risk analysis, and develop processes of creating empathy with the people or communities I want to shoot, so that they naturally accept me in their environment without harming the realism and candid nature of the photography. However, these difficulties turned into real opportunities and brought a huge contribution to my work, which was to actually get to know the life and history of the people I photograph. This circumstance turned my creative process into an immersive experience much more enriching than that which characterizes traditional photography, which is much more distant from its subjects and inevitably more impersonal. And this is fundamentally what moves me and arouses my interest: I am always looking for scenes, moments, or stories that have meaning, that convey strong messages, or that arouse some kind of emotions or feelings in me.

Whenever you go out to photograph, have you studied everything already or do you let yourself be carried away by the moment?

Except for what I said before, or when I am developing a specific project, I never study or plan in advance how I will photograph. My photography is characterized by a great proximity with my subjects and it is impossible to foresee or predict how this interaction will take place. I love to study the human nature and one of the aspects that I am most passionate about is the unpredictability and the possibility of discovering or being surprised by a scene or a story unfolding in front of me that I will be able to capture in those tenths of a second. Experience is an important factor here, it allows me to concentrate on the scene and not be distracted by technical issues. I can say that most of the time I don't even look through the viewfinder, the camera becomes a kind of extension of myself. The only thing that requires previous preparation in this process is the settings that I have to prepare in advance on my camera that are appropriate for the light conditions and type of photography I want to do, but this takes no more than a minute.

I notice that João Coelho regularly photographs Africa. Any special reason?

Well, Africa is the logical and natural choice because I am working and living in Angola, the African country where I spend most of my time. Unfortunately, I don't have the material conditions that allow me to visit other geographies, considered paradises for photography. I can say that if I could, I would love to shoot in India, Cuba, or doing reportages about communities that have always fascinated me, such as miners, gypsies, or other ethnic minorities.

CHRONICLES - TAKAAKI ISHIKURA Hi Takaaki, give us some background, how long ago did you start shooting and what made you start in this world of photography?

I started taking pictures in 2015. At first, I touched the camera for the firstt time to record the workplace of my deceased father. After that, I was only shooting the streets for a while, and from 2018 I started to get interested in portrait works in earnest and started making !!

The photographed work is challenging PHOTO VOGUE, 1X. He left his original PHOTO ZINE "VOICE" on paper from 2019, and now publishes up to "VOICE 5" and sells it at his own web shop. We plan to publish it regularly in the future.

CHRONICLES - TAKAAKI ISHIKURA Do you remember the click that sparked your passion for photography?

I was very passionate about photography because I could work alone, and by continuing to take pictures without going to school, I felt that it was an art that I could express freely. The world without the correct answer is free. It's also a tool for interacting with people around the world, and it's great that you don't need a language.

29

CHRONICLES - TAKAAKI ISHIKURA Who are your main influences on photography? And outside of it?

Inspired by Daido Moriyama, Helmut Newton, Paolo Roversi, and film director Wong Kar Wai.

I notice that most of your photos are portraits/conceptual. Why choose portraits/conceptual photography?

Love at first sight or did you discover your relationship with portraits/conceptual photography over time?

I like works like documentaries and movie scenes more than fashion, and I shoot nudes in the background around them, rather than model works, they and I.

Whenever you go out to photograph, have you studied everything already or do you let yourself be carried away by the moment?

I watch movies more than photo books, studying photography is self-taught by watching movies, women's way of shooting, gestures, expressions, coloring, movies have it.

And I will increase my drawers, and since my work is under, I can shoot alone without the need for large-scale lighting, and I often use old Japanese hotels as the shooting location.

I'm not good at taking pictures too systematically, so I value the atmosphere and emotions at that time.
