The canton of Zurich is building on land that doesn't even belong to it. (People 2024, by Jonathan Labusch) - Swiss Press Award

Jonathan Labusch

For the past five years, I've rarely thought about anything other than photography. Like many people, I started with street photography, allowing me to experiment freely with any subject matter. After that, my focus shifted to concert photography. I was already quite familiar with the music scene, as I was always holding a guitar in front of the camera. While studying photojournalism at the MAZ (Munich State Archives), I began to shoot more and more portraits. Now, this is my main focus. The Tages-Anzeiger newspaper often requests this, which has paid off very well.
