About the Kozo Edition project
Text and photography engage in a dialogue and complement each other.
One extends the gaze of the other, without ever constraining it.
Frederick Georges
Railways through a feminine lens
Under the pen name Frederick Georges, she traces with passion and precision the history of Belgium’s local and urban transport networks. Through her books, she brings forgotten tramway lines and former urban and interurban networks back to life, at the crossroads of collective memory, technical heritage, and contemporary issues.
Her research combines archival sources, rare iconography, and field narratives, offering a perspective that is both rigorous and sensitive on a heritage that is often overlooked. She is committed to making her writing accessible to a wide audience, while maintaining high standards of historical accuracy.
Her publications address railway history enthusiasts, readers interested in mobility, heritage lovers, and regional stakeholders. Her work contributes to preserving and transmitting a shared memory, in direct resonance with today’s questions of gentle and sustainable mobility.
An invitation to rediscover a world on rails that continues to shape our landscapes and our imagination.
Alain M
A photographer of gaze and time
Under the signature Alain M, he develops a photography attentive to places, traces, and silences. His gaze settles on urban, industrial, and natural landscapes with a particular sensitivity to what time has shaped, transformed, or left unresolved.
His approach favors patient observation and precise framing over spectacular effects. Light, material, and the balance of forms become narrative elements in their own right, revealing the soul of the spaces he moves through and the quiet memory they carry.
A field photographer, he explores contemporary architecture as well as industrial remains, railway lines, ports, and landscapes in transition. His images invite us to slow down, to look differently, and to perceive what endures beyond the moment.
His work speaks to photography enthusiasts as much as to lovers of heritage and urban environments. Each image becomes a trace—an open fragment of narrative, leaving us free to project our own interpretation.
A restrained and deeply inhabited photography.
