BIOGRAPHIE

Antoni Lallican is a Paris-based photojournalist working internationally, with a focus on social and societal issues in conflict zones.

 

His work is published by French media outlets such as Le Monde, Le Figaro, Libération, Mediapart, Society, Paris Match, Les Echos Week End, Le La Vie... and internationally by Der Spiegel, Zeit, FAZ, NZZ, Focus Magazin, Die Welt, Stern, TAZ, Le Temps, Der Standard, La Presse, among others.

Antoni Lallican discovered his interest in reportage at the age of 30, while witnessing clashes between separatists and Indian security forces during a trip to Indian Kashmir. The following year, he began honing his craft in France by following the Yellow Vest movement — from roundabouts in the Oise region to marches in the streets of Paris. He later covered major social movements in Hong Kong and India, and turned his attention to housing insecurity, documenting the daily lives of residents in places like the Chêne Pointu complex in Clichy-sous-Bois and workers’ hostels across the Île-de-France region.

A new chapter in his career began in late 2020 when he covered the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War in Armenia. He also traveled to the Middle East and Haiti, driven by a desire to share the voices of populations affected by conflict. Through these experiences, Antoni Lallican has developed a dual approach to photography — combining hard-hitting news imagery with quiet, intimate moments from daily life. This visual narrative seeks to build a bridge between the viewer and the lived reality of those he photographs.

 

In March 2022, just after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, he traveled to the country. Since then, he has been documenting the consequences of the war and has begun long-term work alongside residents of the Donbas mining basin in the southeast of Ukraine.
