Publisher Note

Julian Mährlein captures the faces and voices of inner-city teenagers. The resulting portraits, shot on the streets with natural light, reveal the surprisingly tender side of a generation so often misrepresented and which faces a world in profound flux.

“The images in the book weren’t meant to be overly political from the beginning. My initial thought was to create a simple collection of portraits that I felt, in their neutrality, could somehow counter the huge amount of imagery that is overloaded with other, often commercial values.
However, I guess trying to leave themes like fashion or popular culture out as much as possible and not directing anyone to pose in a specific way can become a political act.”
- Julian Mährlein
