This spiral-bound photobook documents political posters from the 2023 parliamentary elections in Poland, zooming in on the faces of hopeful candidates as they present their best campaigning faces. Some have been graffitied, others appear with their political slogans intact. The images are interspersed with bleak 35mm pictures of the country’s coalmines.
Captured by photographers Alan Gignoux and Chloe Juno
Each copy comes with a pocket-sized ‘fortune teller’ game printed with politicians’ features. Play the game and you will be ‘rewarded’ with different political outcomes.
