People of the 21st century

Dutch photographer Hans Eikelbum has been traveling the world for 20 years and photographing ordinary people on the streets of megacities. If you view his photographs individually, they are unlikely to impress. But grouping by date, place and time of shooting turns a simple photo project into a whole sociological study.

We are amazed at how similar people are to each other. Here are some works of an attentive photographer.
