Seeing Together – Analoge Fotowalks im Stadtraum Frankfurt

The project Seeing Together – Analogue Photo Walks in Frankfurt invites people to see Frankfurt and the surrounding region in a new light through the lens of analogue photography. In an age of digital image overload, the focus is on conscious, decelerated perception. As an artistic practice and as an opportunity to experience design as part of democratic participation.

Four themed walks between March and September 2026 will address the key themes of the World Design Capital: mobility, education, public space and participation. Together with artists Sandrine Jalquin and Thomas Schoger, participants will explore urban spaces, atmospheres and perspectives. The focus is not on technical training, but on seeing, observing and exchanging ideas together.

Participation is open and flexible: interested parties can take part in one or more sessions. This creates ever-changing groups, encounters and perspectives: a lively process of collective perception.

The films recorded by the participants will be developed by the project leaders and then discussed in joint image reviews. This ongoing discussion will result in a zine publication in October 2026, which will document the diversity of the images and conversations that have emerged and ask the question of how we can see and shape the city together.

Sandrine Jalquin is an artist, art historian, and art educator. Thomas Schoger is a photographer and artist. Together, they run analogue photography workshops and walks, make perspectives visible, and additionally work on projects, exhibitions, and their slide archive.
