Emmanuel Lubezki Instagram – Some of the images from the Lavazza Calendar 2022. 

A cloudless sky is difficult to shoot — like a face with no features. All of a sudden from the west, behind the Sierra, the wind blew in a few clouds. One covered the sun and we were able to see the sun’s rays. Shamell danced in rapture towards the light.

Our world is fragile, beautiful. Sometimes we forget. This edition highlights six artists and activists who are committed to change. My process begins in dialogue. How do you want to be photographed and where? My job is to translate their vision into images. Each image contains a personal secret, an evocation.
Our locations across America were impacted by climate change. The shoots exposed us to alarming realities: glacial lakes that disappeared overnight, roads hot enough to melt tires. It made me terribly aware of how desperately we need the voices of these activists. Their work challenges us, creates community, makes us readier for the world’s beauty, stronger against its dangers. It is our duty as artists, as creators, as businesses, to bring these truths to the forefront and address them. And to celebrate those working for change, and to join them, as Ben Harper sings — with our own two hands.
Thank you, Lavazza, for inviting me on this journey. | Posted on 27/Oct/2021 21:21:59
