A vivid showcase of work by more than thirty of the world’s leading contemporary female documentary photographers.
Firecracker, established in 2011 by Fiona Rogers, is a platform dedicated to supporting female photographers worldwide by showcasing their work. Building upon Firecracker’s foundations, this book brings together photography that encompasses an eclectic variety of styles, techniques and locations, from Alma Haser’s futuristic series of portraits that use origami to create 3D sculptures within the frame, to Laura El-Tantawy’s filmic and intensely personal series on political protest in Cairo. There is a recurring theme throughout the book that serves to unite these extraordinary women and their work: the exploration of individual stories and under-discussed subjects, seen by fresh eyes. Review 'An intriguing, varied and thought-provoking book' - Royal Photographic Society Journal
'Beautifully compiled … intelligent commentary' - Black & White Photography
'A contemporary cross-section of subject matter and aesthetic styles … powerful concepts and supreme technical artistry' - Aesthetica About the Author Fiona Rogers is the founder of Firecracker (fire-cracker.org).
