Kota & Kita

In Bahasa Indonesia, “kota” means "the city" and “kita” means "we" — the two words are separated by a single letter. This series lives in that one-letter distance. All the images are less about “the city” than about the people who quietly compose it. Shot mostly on a Leica M10 with a cheap third-party 28mm F2.8 lens, and a compact Fujifilm X100 VI. Jakarta (and any other cities), it turns out, is not “kota” without “kita”.
