João Daniel Pereira's Long-Term Protest Photography Project

publication · 2026-07-27

London-based photographer João Daniel Pereira has spent five years documenting protest movements through an intuitive, emotionally attuned approach. Rather than controlling scenes, he moves through tension, stillness, anger, grief, solidarity, and release, allowing moments to unfold naturally. Pereira draws parallels between protest and nature, stating that harmony emerges from diversity, collision, adaptation, and chaos, not order. His work is featured on Booooooom, which also announced the launch of Booooooom Studio and the release of 'Tomorrow's Talent 5' book, a 276-page collection of 60+ artists in a larger format.
