MARIA MARIÑO, The chosen / edition : 4/15, 2021

The photos are part of an ongoing project that resulted in my first photobook "ONE" which is about the beauty of the extraordinary in everyday life and in being alone in this overcrowded world, and the mystery of people.
All photos were taken in some of the most busy cities in the world. Yet, if you take the time to observe people going by, we remain alone, no matter how surrounded by others we are. For some, that may mean loneliness. For me, this is what makes us unique and interesting. It allows me to imagine their lives and the thousands of possible lives that we all have, to create my own world within this world. A fantasy world. A dream.
