6 MATTHEW ABBOTT iSTANbUl istanbul is a place where east literally meets west. The only major city that straddles two continents, istanbul is both Asian and European, islamic and secular, ancient and modern. it is also the largest Muslim city in the world. Recent discussion as to whether Turkey is ready for European Union membership, motivated me to document the country’s cultural and historical heart. istanbul is a breathtakingly beautiful, vibrant city. i set out to capture the lives of its inhabitants, from the high-society living alongside the bosphorus, to the recent immigrants from the east, Anatolia and beyond. What i discovered was a uniquely modern city, with an immense mix of cultures, traditions and beliefs. There is simply no other city like it. Matthew Abbott is a Sydney-based photographer. He studied photography at Ultimo TAFE and completed a course in photojournalism at the Danish School of Journalism. in 2008 he was short-listed for the Nikon Reportage Grant for Australian Social Photo-documentary. He is currently working in Arnhem land on a long-term project documenting indigenous homelands.
