Life Force magazineis a free, online, monthly reportage magazine which celebrates the art-form of the photo-essay. It has been described as the “Picture Post of the 21st Century” - a photo-led magazine that explores the world and the human condition through the narrative use of photography.
Movies are often fantastic characterisations of real life, such as Saving Private Ryan in which the ‘hyper-real’ is explored to great effect. Life Force Magazine takes images directly from real life, exploring life as a movie that is continually playing out around us.
