Photo collective ‘Tripod City’, a.k.a. Charlie Kwai, Chris Lee & Paul Storrie travel abroad to challenge stereotypes and reveal a fresh, modern perspective on developing countries with their photography. They create photobooks and exhibitions in the UK based on their discoveries in order to entice people to go travel and experience these places for themselves, without preconceptions.
In the past, Tripod City have visited China and Ghana to explore contemporary culture, however in 2016 they decided to go to Mexico in light of the attention the country was receiving in the media during Trump’s rise to power as U.S. president. Their aim was to empower Mexico in a positive light and reveal Mexico for what it is – a truly welcoming, charismatic and passionate country.
