The complexity of modern life is so often reduced to simple sound bites, while visual storytelling embraces that complexity and examines the human condition and natural world with depth, compassion, and honesty. The members of VII are among the most gifted and passionate photographers working in this tradition today and collectively the agency strives to not just record the world, but educate and change it. My work focuses on the emotional landscape of isolated communities and I will continue to document the towns and villages fighting to preserve their culture and autonomy. It is an honor to join the ranks of one of the world’s leading photography collectives. I’m excited to add my voice to VII’s mission and join their effort to advance the social issues of our times with photography that demands attention and inspires public debate.
L'agence photographique vient d'annoncer le recrutement de deux nouveaux photographes. Sarker Protick et Danny Wilcox Frazier viennent compléter l'équipe, composée, entre autres, de James Nachtwey, Christopher Morris ou Ed Kashi.
VII a été fondée le 9 septembre 2001 par sept photographes, comme son nom l'indique, depuis le collectif a grossi et compte à présent 20 photographes à travers le monde, en incluant les deux nouveaux arrivants.
Sarker Protick est un photographe bangladais, sa zone d'activité principale est donc l'Asie du Sud-Est. Ses travaux ont déjà été publiés dans plusieurs journaux prestigieux, comme le New-York Times, National Geographic ou Libération.
