Yann Gross (born 1981)[1] is a Swiss photographer.[2]
Work[edit]
Horizonville is a series about a village in Switzerland obsessed with American biker culture.[3]
Kitintale is about skateboarding culture in Uganda.[4]
The Jungle Book: Contemporary Stories of the Amazon and its Fringe "contains a collection of stories that demystify Amazonia, probing fiction and reality to both play with the perceived stereotypes and convey the contemporary lived experiences of the local inhabitants."[5] It won the Dummy Book Award at Rencontres d'Arles in 2015.[6]
Aya, in collaboration with Arguiñe Escandón, describes an immersion into the Amazon rainforest in Peru, following the path of Charles Kroehle, a pioneering nineteenth-century photographer.[7]
