Palestine is a contemporary paradox. A place where even its very existence is called into question. Only through the manifestation of the lives of its inhabitants can we try to understand its existence, and the injustice that is perpetrated there every day. For this project I have chosen to approach Palestine through its architecture, because the very act of construction is a form of resistance, because it is a direct manifestation of its existence, because it is also a constant struggle against occupation, against destruction, against disappearance. A place built and reconstructed through hundreds of layers through which we try to slip, whether contemplating urban landscapes or architectural details, through photographs or collages, in which a part of the architecture is extracted in order to observe it, to understand it better and in this way to get closer to its inhabitants and builders. The project look as transversally as possible at a country that has been fractured, dismembered, made invisible. The Gaza Strip, an increasingly inaccessible and isolated place, difficult to photograph; Ramallah, Jerusalem, Jericho... Vernacular architecture, self-construction, new buildings, each detail tells us of a way of life, of the past engraved in the materials, of an unstable present almost like the buildings themselves and of an uncertain future where identity merges with the attempt to get closer to a falsely globalized outside world.

Project website: https://twt.obscura.io.

138 world-class, established and emerging photographers from 5 continents brought together by Obscura to take the 1st global visual timestamp of the 21st century. 13,800 native 1/1 NFT photographs of cities, landscapes, communities, people, events and conceptual images that will tell our story for centuries to come, taken Mar-Apr 2022.

An ode to the 1955 exhibition “The Family of Man” by legendary curator Edward Steichen for the MoMA, The World Today uses the blockchain to create a permanent record of our world, rich in metadata connections that further develop and cross-reference the stories within, resulting in a complex net of properties and rarities including 138 curated grails, 1 from each artist.

TWT expanded the frontier of possibilities for photography in the web3 era, and is responsible for onboarding dozens world-class photographers to NFTs.
