CATEGORY 2: THE CITY AS A WAY OF LIFE
Autori: Rozafa Shpuza
Title: “The world as a puzzle”
Place: Tirana, Albania
Description: Photography for me is the emotion that is conveyed through details, shapes, light shadows, cuts, the mystery that the shot hides in itself. We live in a world full of chaos, so we have to put different parts in the daily life full of joys and sorrows to create our future. This photo also conveys this feeling. It is a wall divided into circles, like the ball that the children are playing with beyond it. Somewhere a hand appears and somewhere else a foot, which constitute in itself the philosophy of the entire journey of man on this planet, so that, sometimes, it seems as if it is that ball in the hand of that child who is playing with it quite frankly.

Title of Series: “Colors in Daily Life”
Title 1: “The lonely chair”
In the twilight of the evening, the light coming from the window was very eye-catching. But in my focus the main character was the chair.
Title 2: “Complementary”
Like any photographer, I have developed my own passions for color. In this context, it is very strange how by chance the negative word “Don’t" is found exactly where the two complementary colors are located.
Title 3: “Curiosity”
I am always amazed how the gaze of portraits brings a state of tension where the monotony reigns.
Title 4: “Consumption”
During the evening, artificial lighting prevails in the city between warm and cold. And what is noticeable in the social aspect of today's times is the coexistence between drama and pop culture
Title 5: “The flaming of chaos”
The art of street photography always stimulates the imagination. In those moments, the sunset seemed to me as if the chaos of wires inflamed the facade and the clouds legitimized the smoke of the flames.
Title 6: "Abstract"
Construction industries have endlessly adapted tools that can fit into old buildings according to the needs of the residents. And this situation creates abstract compositions in my photography.
