At this year's Photo London, Galerie—Peter—Sillem is featuring a selection from Peter Bialobrzeski's "London Diary" project (2022), a two-time winner of the World Press Photo Award, complemented by two of his coastal impressions from the Baltic Sea. A wintry scene reminiscent of Brueghel from his iconic series Heimat serves as the finishing touch.

In addition, a selection from Melanie Issaka's series "Blueprint: Black Skin White Mask" will be presented, comprising four staged self-portraits alongside one of the original cyanotypes she employs in her photography. "Blueprint: Black Skin, White Mask" delves into the social and political dimensions of Blackness, whiteness, and the spaces in between. Melanie Issaka (b. 1994, Ghana) is a visual artist based in London, United Kingdom. She attained her Photography MA from the Royal College of Art.
