JONATHAN ORTEGAT

In 2021, I was awarded the framework service contract forproducing photo reports as part of various urban.brussels initiatives. The contract I was awarded was titled “Life.” These are more “vibrant” photographs designed to highlight the sociocultural aspects of the projects. The idea was to photograph the highlights of daily life and citizen participation in these projects, such as bustling public spaces, resident meetings, project launches and site meetings, celebrations and activities related to the socioeconomic components of sustainable neighborhood contracts and urban renewal contracts, opportunities for dialogue, and thematic workshops, among other things.

Today, after two contract renewals, I continue to photograph CQD and DRU projects, in addition to events such as Heritage Days, Archaeology Days, and Sustainable Architecture Days.
