A mural portraying a bicyclist holding a tray of bread, a familiar food in Cairo known as aish, a word that also means “life.” Facing off the bicyclist was a tank with a soldier in the gun turret, aiming at the bread.

Budapest– Hungary

This photo is part of a set of 3 images made for “Paraphrase Photography Contest” and is reflecting to the photos of Pécsi József.

Over the last decade, an increasing number of  shopping centers appeared in Budapest, which changed fundamentally people’s shopping habits. 60-70 years ago people were buying stuff on the market, grocery store, small shops, from street vendors, etc. but now it became a family program. This work is a reflection about this globally expanding shopping habit.
