“The United States, a nation marked by deep contradictions, where the modern and the traditional coexist in fragile balance.
The “giants” – big cities, cultural icons, and landmark places – dominate the collective imagination, but their shadows hide stories of marginalized communities and suburbs that resist homogenization. Through images that highlight this strong contrast, the project focuses on how standardized urban models – from fast food chains to shopping malls – often erase local traditions and historical identities.
With a thoughtful and reflective approach, In the Shadow of Giants challenges the illusion of a homogeneous America, exploring the tension between the metropolitan dream and the reality of those living in its shadow.”
