TTLC collaborated with https://phlsph-lab.com/ to organize one-on-one meetings for selected photographers to work on their artist’s statements and the conceptual structure of their project.

“Through the Lens Collective” is a collaborative educational and developmental photographic space created by South African visual artist and educator Michelle Loukidis, who shares a commitment to, and appreciation of, the photographic medium on the African continent.

The selected photographers for PLAY BACK are Ollie Walker, Maroula Lambis, Nadia Raaths and Maheder Haileselassie. [May 2023]
