Each photographer will be featured in two episodes. The first episode will explore their creative process and journey with photography. In a second episode, photographers delve deep into their most significant images. They share the political, historical, and/or personal context of the creation of their images and why, out of their archive of thousands of photos, they chose these photographs as their most significant.
