ALEX DE MORA - THE ITINERANTS

Alex de Mora is a London based photographer and director. In October 2019, Alex traveled to Mongolia on a self-funded trip to document the city of Ulaanbaatar and its undiscovered hip-hop scene. Today marks the launch of the short film in support of the release of his first book ‘Straight Outta Ulaanbaatar’.

The Itinerants - An insight into the personal and private lives of global nomads driven and guided by their passion and innate ability within the creative industries. All images provided by the libraries of their phones and devices.
