Panel Discussion: How Do We Bear Witness?

Deadline:

August 29
UQ Art Museum

As part of Hoda Afshar: A Curve is a Broken Line, join us for a discussion on the politics of image-making. Hoda Afshar is an Iranian documentary photographer based in Naarm/Melbourne. Her work not only draws our attention to critical contemporary social issues, but it forces us to question how we bear witness to them through photo-media, documentary and the structures of journalism.

Hear from renowned artist Hoda Afshar, Dr Samid Suliman (Senior Lecturer, School of Humanities, Languages and Social Sciences, Griffith University), Miriam Deprez (photographer, journalist, and researcher) as they discuss the importance of challenging bias, embracing collaboration, and the subject’s agency in their representation.
