Broaden your understanding on identity and how it affects our ability to capture other cultures and movements authentically.

Photoville Brooklyn - Leica Pavilion - Brooklyn Bridge Plaza

<p>During a time when social and political movements are more accessible and important to document than ever before, how do we capture history without becoming a voyeur of a culture that is not our own? Why is it necessary to create impactful images born from our own experiences without exploiting others? This presentation shares Woolridge&#x27;s experience navigating and developing her artistic style while building awareness of our influence on how we view the communities we photograph. It will encourage us to reconsider the space we take up, our roles as photographers in contributing to activism, and how we influence the images we capture. Discover our social responsibility whether as a photojournalist capturing a social movement, or a hobbyist photographing cultures abroad, and rethink how we can photograph righteously.</p>
