The other is a threat

Concept:

Due to an extremely tense political climate during the financial crisis of 2008, it was hard not to give in to fear. We were assailed by mass media with violent and dramatic images that slowly entered our collective consciousness, creating a climate of paranoia. Matthieu Lavanchy and James Thom developed a photo series of fixed images and cold lights, staged as an emotional storytelling to describe the socio-political tension of that year.
