‘Street Boxer’ is shot on film and printed by hand by photographer Paul Pinga Matereke and came about after a chance encounter.
“A young boy no older than 17 was walking around Sydneyham Station late in the afternoon on his way to an unknown location. The boy didn’t appear like the type to punch on with randoms; however, he carried himself strongly, arms swinging, swaying with every stride.
As I watched him walk on, I conjured a theory; there must be a secret fight club he goes to with a Tyler Druen type at the helm.“
