Borders is the theme of the 11th annual Kyoto photo festival – Kyotographie – though, as the co-director Lucille Reyboz is keen to emphasise, there are no borders here. The festival brings together the work of artists from as far afield as Ivory Coast and the London borough of Hackney, with projects ranging from the trials of migration to the challenges of living with dementia.

The work displayed in each exhibition is complemented by the choice of venue. The tranquil Ryosokuin Zen temple is the space showing the work of mixed-media artist Joana Choumali.
