PHOTO ESSAY : GEOMETRY IN STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

TEXT & PHOTO: SITTICHAI MAIKUPANDIN

(For Thai, press here)

Whenever I walk in the streets, taking photos, I like to look around and capture images in geometric forms, whether they’re triangles, rectangles, circles, or different kinds of lines, and use them to tell stories in my photographs. They bring engaging and aesthetic elements to the pictures.

Thai photographers refer to this type of photography as graphic street, a long-existing technique where architectural forms become an integral part of a photo. I like to use different shapes, lines, colors, lights, and shadows to create simple compositions, keeping the frame minimal and organized while adding the street elements by creating a connection or with the presence of a subject that brings a particular narrative to my photographs.
