(I do have a copy of this but don't have it to hand, so used this image)
I came across this towards the end of last year (it was featured in BJP : http://www.bjp-online.com/british-journal-of-photography/project/2127269/jason-larkin-cairo-divided )
The work is stunning, but that is not why I have shown it. I have always had a passion for publishing, but only really with magazine. I always thought of newspapers being too disposable but when done right they can be a superb output for work.
I still haven't fully decided yet, but I am aiming for the project I'm shooting to be produced into either a book or a newspaper. As I am shooting square format I found it interesting to see what others have done.
'The surreal remodeling of the landscape shows little appreciation for the environment it is rapidly colonising. From the decisions of a few, Cairo is morphing its periphery into its core whilst condemning the previous centre to a life on the margins. I felt witness to a mass exit strategy taking shape, and with the camera, recorded the foundations of abandonment in pursuit of self-interest and exclusive isolation.'
