What’s better than a magazine about how Dublin can be a dirty city to make people want to go there?
When Laura asked the people she met if they thought Dublin was clean or rather dirty, opinions differed. Yes, depending on where people come from, they don’t have the same cities in comparison and so their judgment is different.
For Laura, who grew up in a small coastal town in Brittany, Dublin can sometimes be very dirty. What shocked him was the number of waste accumulated in the streets, the lack of recycling but above all: where are the recycling centers?
Therefore, when it was necessary to create a magazine as part of her Photography course at Griffith College, Laura decided to base herself on the the following quote:
‘I don’t care about being popular.
Greta Thunberg
I care about climate justice and the living planet.’
From this quote emerged an editorial in which a maximum of 12 photographs were to appear in an order allowing a fact, a story to be told.
