The images in this book are shot with an iphone4 in the districts of Beyoğlu, Fatih and Kadıköy, Turkey. A gritty narrative illuminated through black and white street photography.

“I saw an act of kindness is about my stay in Istanbul during the winter of 2016. Through random walks through Turkey’s metropole I intended to capture the city in a time when its inhabitants are dealing with a Syrian refugee crisis, suicide bombings by the Islamic State, conservative religious street gangs, and the lingering of a civil war in the East.” – From the artist.
