This edition brings together two visual storytellers whose practices engage deeply with questions of identity, migration, memory, and place. Through distinct yet complementary approaches, Citlali Fabián and Jai Toor use photography to navigate personal and collective histories, examining how images can hold lived experience, cultural inheritance, and emotional truth. Their work moves between documentation and imagination, reflecting on displacement, diaspora, and the meaning of home across generations and geographies.Citlali Fabian A Yalalteca (indigenous from Mexico) visual storyteller.

His practice explores the interplay of diaspora and fantasy within the fabric of everyday surroundings. Working across documentary, fashion, andmusic, Toor employs a multifaceted approach that integrates research, analogue processes, text, and archival photographs to construct layered visual narratives. Jai Toor's practice centres around long-form photographic projects that often begin close to home — both literally and emotionally, before expanding outward. As someone who has lived across India and the UK, in many different homes, I’ve never felt a singular sense of place. This transient experience of “home” underpins much of my work, where themes of diaspora, migration, family, loss, and identity recur. He is particularly drawn to overlooked stories, fragments of personal or collective memory that might otherwise go undocumented. Photography, for me, is a way of capturing both presence and absence; a medium that can preserve histories, confront traumas, and evoke longing. He works across documentary, fashion, and music, but his approach remains consistent: research-led and open to intuition.His projects often begin with reading, writing, and conversations, forming a kind of text-based map that guides me visually. I draw from national archives, interviews, and everyday encounters, weaving together photographs, text, and found materials. He uses analogue and digital photography interchangeably, but shooting on film allows him to slow down and connect more intentionally with the people and places he documents. He sees his work as semi-fictional, a space where documentation, re-imagination, and emotional truth coexist. He leans into ambiguity, allowing the viewer to enter the work without a fixed outcome, but with enough guidance to feel immersed. Collaboration is essential to this process: He often enters personal or communal spaces where trust, exchange, and shared authorship become part of the narrative. Ultimately, he is interested in how photography can hold contradictions, between fact and feeling, history and fantasy, familiarity and displacement, and in how storytelling can honour both the known and the unknowable.IN FOCUS is presented by the Photojournalism Hub in collaboration with , bringing to the public compelling and thought-provoking contemporary documentary photography and photojournalism. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/in-focus-a-photography-evening-with-citlali-fabian-and-jai-toor/100001980288392891 - **Event Categories**: art, contests, sports, meetups, exhibitions, photography, entertainment, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 6.13, max: 6.13, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Riverside Studios - **lat**: 51.48874199999999 - **long**: -0.2282905 - **full address**: Riverside Studios, 101 Queen Caroline Street, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: IN FOCUS: A Photography Evening with Citlali Fabian and Jai Toor - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/6feeaeb139e1e69911ef691c77a93b8361dc1e235f7143eabaf0b0b62553c91a-rimg-w1200-h600-dc010000-gmir.jpg?v=1769033731 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is IN FOCUS: A Photography Evening with Citlali Fabian and Jai Toor being held? - **A:** IN FOCUS: A Photography Evening with Citlali Fabian and Jai Toor takes place on Mon, 09 Feb, 2026 at 07:15 pm to Mon, 09 Feb, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Riverside Studios, 101 Queen Caroline Street, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for IN FOCUS: A Photography Evening with Citlali Fabian and Jai Toor? - **A:** Tickets for IN FOCUS: A Photography Evening with Citlali Fabian and Jai Toor are priced at GBP 6 per person.
