The images in this series by Edson Chagas are photographed in the style of passport photographs; the series title, Tipo Passe, is Portuguese for passport. Chagas has used this format, perhaps the most common form of photography, and transformed it into large-scale portraits. A globally recognised form of identification and the fundamental document to enable migration and movement across borders, the passport photograph has an increased significance in the twenty- first century as refugees move across borders in numbers that have not been seen for decades.
