Alejandro Catagena - Carpoolers

Alejandro Catagena, standing on a bridge every morning overlooking a busy road, pointed his camera down onto the traffic below. A seemingly simple strategy based on viewpoint and location and one which resulted in an extraordinary depiction of the contemporary reality of globalisation.  Not only would he have got to recognise the same vehicles day after day but some of the workers must have got used to seeing him there, too.  Check out the slideshow on lens culture website.
