In Artdoc Issue #3 2026, Being Human, we present photographers whose work reflects our shared humanity across cultures, communities, and continents. Their images portray people as fellow human beings, connected by experience, dignity, and everyday life. Larry Snider documents life in Tibet as traditional cultures gradually disappear. Matilde Simas focuses on human stories shaped by vulnerability and social change. Panji Indra’s The Cyclist Portrait honours Java’s bicycle vendors, while Roberto Pazzi highlights communities whose traditions are fading. Ruben Timman travels widely to photograph individuals whose stories deserve recognition. Alongside the portfolios, discover two articles exploring documentary portraiture: The Documentary Portrait as a Way to Tell Stories and How to Tell Stories Through Documentary Portraits. Issue #3 2026 features work by Roberto Pazzi, Ruben Timman, Matilde Simas, Panji Indra, Larry Snider, Glenn Porter, Simone Marchetti, Steff Gruber, Trevor Cole, Nick David, Owen Prucey, Nina Golob, and Susanne Reuling.
Abstract photography operates where form, colour, rhythm, and composition carry meaning that direct representation cannot reach. This issue brings together artists who use abstraction as a way of engaging with the world — emotionally, politically, and intuitively. In uncertain times, the visible surface of things can conceal as much as it reveals. By fragmenting, blurring, or reducing the subject to light and texture, these photographers find a coded language for what lies beneath — the tensions, fears, and inner states that resist straightforward depiction. The Photo Culture section presents a visual essay on aerial photography, exploring a perspective that transforms the familiar world into pure abstraction — shape, pattern, and tone detached from recognisable form. Issue #2 2026 features work by Sarah Ketelaars, Jan Beesley, Daniel Rose, Lori Pond, Michael Naify, Linda Jarrett, Rene Wissink, Marie Sueur, Francesco Pace Rizzi, Anna-Maria Becher, Kirsten Smith, and Jeff Larason. Read the issue and explore the many ways abstraction expands what photography can say.
Photographers now use the inner lens rather than a mechanical one. This personal eye not only perceives reality but also merges it with psychological awareness. Olga Shatokha investigates the stories passed down from Ukraine, blending family history with landscapes. Yi Hsuan Lai examines the body as a canvas for psychological expression, exploring femininity shaped by her personal journey. Susana Espana explores the inner landscape of memory by creating layered images inspired by her experiences. Aletheia Casey merges aesthetic features with documentary photography to convey an emotional message about the wildfires and Australia’s difficult history. This Artdoc issue also features emerging talents: VJ Martin, Lawrence Manning, and Virginia McGee Richards. The Inner Lens exhibition fosters a conversation between inner experiences and the external environment. The essay, Rethinking Iconography in Contemporary Photography, examines the role of symbols in today's photography.
In Artdoc issue #6 2025, Perspectives on Nature, we feature four portfolios that each present their unique perspective on Nature. In The Material Life of Plants, Teri Figliuzzi explores photography to preserve the beauty of change during times of upheaval and uncertainty. Tristan Duke uses melting ice as the pencil of nature in his series Glacial Optics, observing the changing environment through lenses made of ice. Justin Pumfrey presents the poetic series Walking the Luminous Edge of Darkness, which he shot during the dark hours in a state of mind without labels. Tsung-yu Lu’s abstract photography combines scientific thought with artistic drive, pushing the limits of image creation. The essay Blueprints, Botanicals, and the Contemporary Cyanotype traces the cyanotype’s journey from a nineteenth-century scientific tool to a contemporary photographic language.
