independent photography magazine published by Uhm! Publishing. It is dedicated to black-and-white film photography.
At the heart of Jian Jian is the concept of 兼, a Chinese character representing duality—not as multitasking, but as the seamless blending of vision and thought. Each issue invites photographers to present their world through storytelling, using only black and white film. It’s about how photography reflects emotions, ideas, and personal narratives.
The first volume, Jian Jian 01 – Last Day of Summer by Stefano Samà, captures the fleeting beauty of summer’s final moments, exploring nostalgia, warmth, and transition through a deeply personal lens.
