Geneva's St Pierre Cathedral, by Josh Fassbind, on flickr

Josh Fassbind, a regular photo contributor to GenevaLunch, is appealing to amateur photographers in Geneva for help with a project he’s undertaking. He’s posted this message on the GenevaLunch page on flickr, and I’m posting it here to reach a wider audience:

Dear art/photography lovers,

Are you a foreigner living in Geneva? You feel at home in Geneva and would like to share your vision/experience of the city?

I am a Geneva-based photographer in love with my city. Currently, I am working on a fine art photography project called “Geneva through the eyes of the world”. The idea behind this project is to discover or rediscover Geneva through the eyes of people from different countries and cultures living in the same city. Therefore, I intend to choose one person per nationality to photograph – and as many nationalities as possible.

For each portrait the aim is to highlight:
1 nationality;
1 place: each person chooses his/her favorite place in Geneva for the portrait – it could be an area, a café, a bench in a local park, etc.
1 word: I ask each person to describe their vision/experience of Geneva in one word. Again, this is open to a variety of possibilities. It could be a word describing how you feel about Geneva, how you perceive the life in the city, what you think about its people, etc.

Should you be interested in participating, please contact me in order to further discuss the project.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you!

Josh Fassbind
