This series is a tribute to the hardworking urban workers who keep a city moving but are rarely noticed. They work behind the scenes, in all kinds of weather and tough conditions, making sure everything runs smoothly. Their work and efforts might be unnoticed, but in reality they are deeply meaningful and essential to our everyday lives. These photos are a way to honor their dedication and the pivotal roles they play in building and maintaining a city. They are the backbone of any city. They are the true unsung heroes who deserve more recognition.



The photos in this series were taken in Chicago, US.
