Men at Work is a street photography project about, well… men. At work. Revolutionary, I know. But hear me out.

This isn’t just hi-vis jackets and steel-toe boots—though there’s a fair share of that, too. It’s a study in how men show up in the world when they’ve got something to do. From suited-up execs power-walking with phones glued to their faces, to baristas pulling perfect flat whites like it’s performance art, to road workers deep in a group huddle that looks suspiciously like a chat about last night’s footie—this project captures the whole glorious spectrum.

What they wear, how they move, how they talk (or don’t)—it’s all fair game. Some wear uniforms, some wear swagger, some wear stress like a second skin. Men at Work isn’t about the jobs themselves so much as the people doing them—the way posture becomes performance, how identity gets stitched into a shirt collar, or tucked behind a clipboard.

It’s part anthropology, part fashion show, part accidental comedy. Because honestly, nothing says "human condition" like someone trying to look busy while absolutely winging it.
