Riding as One is an ongoing, global visual ethnography that examines the motorcycle and the bicycle as vital conduits of social cohesion. Moving beyond the utilitarian view of transport, the project captures the “social stage” of the two-wheeled vehicle: a space where families, labour and intimacy are balanced in a delicate, moving choreography.

The project is the first phase of a lifelong global survey. It looks at how people navigate the world not as isolated individuals but as collective units, turning the “mundane” commute into a profound act of solidarity and shared agency.
