Imagery of crowds and mass gatherings has been the focal point of Michel Comte's work for many years now. Particularly powerful are the yearly Easter blessings in the Vatican City; the papal conclaves with aerial views of all the gathered cardinals have not changed since the Middle Ages. From Shibuya's crossings to New York's Times Square; from the Hajj in Mecca, to Woodstock, the World Cup final, and the Italian Grand Prix; from the March on Washington with Martin Luther King, to Hong Kong in 2019-2020-each of these places attracts enormous crowds approaching a point of imminent danger that have led to catastrophic events in the past.In November 2019 the first cases of COVID-19 were reported in the city of Wuhan in Hubei province; in the months since, our world has changed. Social distancing has become the new norm and our entire perspective towards gathering, meeting and closeness have taken on different meanings. Suddenly, images of crowds look unfamiliar. The dots are drifting apart.

If one had to choose a single series that summed up Koto Bolofo's unconventional approach to fashion photography, it could well be Say Cheese-pictures brimming with light and delight which defy the often stilted, glum or over-dramatized images of the industry. These photos were originally published in 2000 in Vogue Italia, then under the legendary Franca Sozzani, whom Bolofo first met in 1984 and worked with over more than 25 years. He fondly remembers the exceptional creative freedom she gave him and other photographers at the magazine-Sozzani provided the clothes, they did the rest.And so it was with Say Cheese: Bolofo was given a wardrobe of female swimwear, and with the help of his frequent stylist Nicoletta Santoro, he shunned professional models, instead enlisting a vibrant squad of real synchronized swimmers, California's Riverside Aquettes. The resulting images show a variety of female bodies at ease and play-floating and twirling in sparkling, sun-filled water, clad in retro looks, from Great Gatsby flair to flowered 1950s bathing caps, and each wearing Bolofo's favorite accessory: a genuine smile.
