Photographs. How many images do we expose ourselves to every day? Dozens, hundreds. Photographs that we take ourselves and whose meaning we overlook. Each of them, however, has a powerful message, and we often give up a chance: to tell a story, to influence the reality of the world with our gaze.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work of the workshop \"Storytelling through photography\" was largely reminding participants of this power. Coming to crown the path of EU-CARES<\/a><\/strong> in the development of techniques for storytelling, the five-day workshop invited participants to tell the urban conflict in images. Images to choose with care through disposable machines, whose limit of shots inspired careful reflections.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond reporting, the workshop explored more introspective photographic types, portrait and still life. <\/strong>The diversity of the group was a breeding ground. Migrant and refugee adolescents took pictures together with university students, teachers and third sector professionals, creating photographs with strong expressive and aesthetic charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between improvised poses, film rolls and red darkroom lights, the participants met during the various sessions. A deep encounter around a collective search, each bringing its own gaze.<\/strong> The poetic frame of the Kamera Photo Lab laboratory did the rest. Its atmosphere of concentration, serenity and peace inspired the participants to a more precise and sharp approach to the normal panoramas of life. A necessary attention to tell, and re-tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
