The rapid development of technology has changed the way we live, and the way we capture and share our moments. In the digital age, much of our life now happens online.

On social media, images appear and vanish at great speed; their appeal is often fleeting, and a photograph seen on a screen rarely carries the same weight as a print on a gallery wall.

With this exhibition and its accompanying book, we chose to bring together a selection of photographs first published on the Instagram page of Akasi magazine, giving them a more lasting presence on paper and on the wall.
