A fisherman, knee-deep in the river, proudly hauls his day’s catch in a net. An old television set is nestled among a riverbank’s rocks. A Muslim cemetery, looking quiet and peaceful, can be seen nearby.

These are just a few of the 30 black and white photographs (50cm x 70cm) taken by Kuala Lumpur-based French photographer Serge Pagano, which are currently on display at cultural centre Alliance Francaise in KL.
