Now in its 15th edition, Ones to Watch is BJP‘s annual selection of emerging photographers who embody the talent and creativity in international photography today, nominated by a global network of curators, editors and artists. Depicting war or the effects of migration; exploring heritage from more than one country, or histories of dominance and imperialism – many of this year’s Ones to Watch broach weighty topics, but they still find moments of joy. From straight documentary to working with illustration and sculpture, this international cohort also puts photography through its paces, playing with the possibilities of the expanded medium while speaking with distinctive voices. On this year’s cover, Kristina Podobed. Originally from Odesa, Ukraine, she is now based with her young family in Paris, where she makes intimate, subtly disorientating work. She was recommended to BJP by Alessia Glaviano, Head of Global PhotoVogue and Director of the Photo Vogue Festival.
