For his new photo book Homo Mobilis, photographer Martin Roemers traveled the world armed with a large white backdrop, a camera, and one simple question: “Would you pose with your vehicle for me?”

Show me your vehicle and I'll tell you who you are. For his new photo book Homo Mobilis, photographer Martin Roemers travelled the world armed with a large white backdrop, a camera, and one simple question: “Would you pose with your vehicle for me?” The result is an eye-opening collection of images that raises pressing questions about our current global society. “What about the environmental impact of our addiction to oil and engines?” but also: “Does your choice of vehicle express something about your identity?” At the same time, Roemers' images almost instantly bring a smile to your face. The book is also interspersed with behind-the-scenes shots that clearly reveal the scale and ambition of this project.
