Since its release in November 2020—and after an incredibly successful crowdfunding campaign that reached its goal within days—HIDDEN has garnered global media attention and is already receiving recognition from some of the world’s most renowned photojournalism platforms, including Pictures of the Year 2020 and World Press Photo.

“Most Likely to Save the Planet” is HIDDEN’s latest accolade, awarded this month by Independent Publisher. HIDDEN was selected as an “Outstanding Book of the Year” at this year’s Awards from over 4,500 entries.

HIDDEN: Animals in the Anthropocene (We Animals Media, 2020)

 

 

“This is a book borne out of the urgency of the message, tackling a subject well beyond the comfort zone of any mainstream publisher. For HIDDEN and We Animals Media to be honoured so highly by the Independent Publisher Book Awards seems entirely apt.” ― Keith Wilson, HIDDEN’s co-editor

These are just some of HIDDEN’s 204 images now available via our stock collection, which features over 130 images from a number of the book’s contributing photographers, including Aaron Gekoski, Paul Hilton, Selene Magnolia, Andrew Skowron and Luis Tato. Their exhaustive and in-depth work has resulted in some of the most compelling images of animals that we have seen.

“This book is a historic document, a memorial, and an indictment of what is and should never again be.” ― Jo-Anne McArthur, HIDDEN’s creator and co-editor
