Square Mile is a geographic framework signifying a local focus on spaces where personal, local, and global influences intersect. The projects explore how themes such as climate change, identity, history, legacy, migration, gender, and environment appear within a local perspective. The initiative aims to inspire conversations on the significance of local stories in a global context and to engage the public in discussions about social issues and the transformative power of photography.
Launched in 2024, Square Mile is a traveling exhibition and video screening that is currently in its eighth edition. It has been previously exhibited at the Photoville Festival in New York City and PhotoVogue in Milan. Additionally, it has been screened during the Les Rencontres d’Arles Photo Festival, Kranj Foto Fest in Slovenia, OFF Festival in Arles, JIPFest in Jakarta, and OKO Foto Festival in Slovenia.
