Katrin Koenning is a visual artist from Germany whose work travels across still and moving images and text, at times including found materials, painting and collage. Pursuing intimacy and interconnection her work centres around practice as relational encounter. Most stories evolve through years and use returning as a way of drawing closer. Different series often intersect, merging in and out of each other. In her extended image-dialogues, Katrin uses fragments and slippages to suggest narrative spaces, communities and lived experiences that are allied, fluid and multiplicit. Many of her series render non-human human entanglement and intimate kin, positing imaginaries with a greater-than-human world.Katrin has been the recipient of multiple awards, such as the Bowness Photography Prize. Her work is regularly exhibited in Australian and international solo and group exhibitions including presentations at Ishara Art Foundation Dubai, Chobi Mela, Paris Photo, Hamburg Triennial of Photography, Museum of Australian Photography, Centre for Contemporary Photography, Australian Centre for Photography and the National Gallery of Victoria (2023). Koenning's images have been published in The New Yorker, Vogue.com, Zeit Magazine, The Guardian, New York Times, Esquire Italy, Der Spiegel, Yucca Magazine, California Sunday and many other places. Her work is held in numerous institutional and private collections both in Australia and abroad; most recently her large-scale installation While the Mountains had Feet [2020 — 2022] was acquired in whole by the National Gallery of Victoria.Katrin regularly teaches workshops in photographic practice and thinking, working closely with many institutions and festivals locally and across the Asia-Pacific region such as Angkor Photo Festival (Siem Reap Cambodia), Photo Kathmandu (Kathmandu, Nepal), The Lighthouse (Calcutta, West Bengal), Myanmar Deitta (Yangon, Myanmar), Australian Centre for Photography, Perth Centre for Photography, Centre for Contemporary Photography, Museum of Australian Photography, Palmtree Workshops (Santorini Greece, forthcoming), and others.Katrin lives and works in Naarm (Melbourne) on unceded Boon Wurrung Woi Wurrung Country.

Don Watson, acclaimed author and former speechwriter to Paul Keating, speaks in-depth about his Quarterly Essay, High Noon: Trump, Harris and America on the Brink, on the 2024 US Presidential Election and whether the United States of America is disintegrating. He travelled around the country as part of his research for the essay earlier this year.Amy will also be joined by a special panel with Daniel Boetker-Smith (CCP Director), Catlin Langford (outgoing CCP Curator), Jessie Norman, and Christopher Sutherland, to talk about a brilliant photography prokect and book co-published by Perimeter Editions and the Centre for Contemporary Photography. Auto-Photo: A Life in Portraits tells the story of Alan Adler, a Melbourne man who is likely the the most photographed person in Australia, and is also perhaps the oldest and longest-serving photobooth technician in the world. Alan maintained a suite of photobooths across Melbourne/Naarm for over 50 years – most notably, at Flinders Street Station – and would undertake weekly testing and servicing on each photobooth across his network. Adler would take a seat in the booth and produce a test strip of photographs – these photos from the 1970s to the 2010s – form the basis of the book and a forthcoming exhibition in 2025. In 2018, with the booth at Flinders Street Station facing imminent closure, Christopher Sutherland and Jessie Norman – whose operation later became known as Metro-Auto-Photo – began working with Adler to generate interest in his work and to successfully save his photobooth. It's Mid-Autumn Festival (also known as Moon Festival) on Tuesday 17th September. Joey Leung, founder of Joy Jaune, an artisan patisserie and dessert shop at the Preston Market, and author and Sinologist Linda Jaivin talk about the significance of Mid-Autumn Festival in China and to many other Asian cultures, including Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines. They talk about the story of the Moon Goddess Chang'e, the traditions around mooncakes, family reunion, and more! Joey sells her beautiful mooncakes every Moon Festival – check out her Instagram!

Website | Instagram“I think I internalised a European sense of America in several different ways. When I was out on the road a lot of things seemed exotic to me, things that I'd grown up with and were just part of being: the long distances; these buildings that just pop up in the middle of nowhere; the emptiness; the scale… the kind of watching of movies of what is the American west. The internalisation I think has something to do with scale. I live in London - the small streets, you're around people all the time, and then being in this openness, which i miss and i love, but I did find it unnerving and it effected how I made the work actually.” Become a full tier 1 member here to access exclusive additional subscriber-only content and the full archive of previous episodes for £5 per month.For the tier 2 archive-only membership, to access the full library of past episodes for £3 per month, go here.Subscribe to my weekly newsletter here for everything A Small Voice related and much more besides.Follow me on Instagram here.Build Yourself a Squarespace Website video course here.

Edward Burtynsky is regarded as one of the world's most accomplished contemporary photographers. His remarkable photographic depictions of global industrial landscapes represent over 40 years of his dedication to bearing witness to the impact of human industry on the planet. Edward's photographs are included in the collections of over 80 major museums around the world, including the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa; the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Guggenheim Museum in New York; the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid; the Tate Modern in London, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in California.Edward was born in 1955 of Ukrainian heritage in St. Catharines, Ontario. He received his BAA in Photography/Media Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University) in 1982, and has since received both an Alumni Achievement Award (2004) and an Honorary Doctorate (2007) from his alma mater. He is still actively involved in the university community, and sits on the board of directors for The Image Centre (formerly Ryerson Image Centre).In 1985, Edward founded Toronto Image Works, a darkroom rental facility, custom photo laboratory, digital imaging, and new media computer-training centre catering to all levels of Toronto's art community.Early exposure to the General Motors plant and watching ships go by in the Welland Canal in Edward's hometown helped capture his imagination for the scale of human creation, and to formulate the development of his photographic work. His imagery explores the collective impact we as a species are having on the surface of the planet — an inspection of the human systems we've imposed onto natural landscapes.Exhibitions include: Anthropocene (2018) at the Art Gallery of Ontario and National Gallery of Canada (international touring exhibition); Water (2013) at the New Orleans Museum of Art and Contemporary Art Center in Louisiana (international touring exhibition); Oil (2009) at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.

And I think that when things reveal themselves slowly and in a more challenging way, they become more interesting as objects to leave in the world. That they don't just reveal themselves immediately, you can't just get it in one quick glance and you're done, no, these things ask you to look at them and spend time with them. And I discover things in them sometimes that I never saw before.

In today's episode we're asking whether the Exposure Triangle had its day in contemporary photography or whether there are better ways to think about exposure. The Exposure Triangle has long been a fundamental concept, but with the rapid evolution of technology, particularly the rise of mirrorless cameras, we question whether it still holds the same significance in 2024. We'll discover the truth with today's special guest, the award winning portrait photographer, educator and YouTube legend JOE EDELMAN.******************************************************************SUPPORT THE PODCAST: www.buymeacoffee.com/camerashake******************************************************************JOIN THE CAMERA SHAKE COMMUNITY for the latest news and some behind the scenes insights: www.camerashakepodcast.com******************************************************************Check out our sponsor: www.platypod.com******************************************************************THIS WEEK'S LINKS:INTERESTED IN THE LOFOTEN VIKING PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP?https://www.idavewilliams.com/trainingTHIS WEEK'S LINKS:GET A FREE ADOBE CREATIVE CLOUD SUBSCRIPTION WHEN JOININGTHE LOFOTEN VIKING PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP?

In 1989, a month before his fourth birthday, the artist and photographer Trent Davis Bailey (our host, Spencer Bailey's, identical twin brother) lost his mother in the crash-landing of United Airlines Flight 232 in Sioux City, Iowa. Now 38 and a husband and father, Bailey is at work on “Son Pictures,” an ongoing series of photographs piecing together fragments of his family's past, including details of his mother's life and the relationship he was never able to develop with her. Leading him to take deep-dives into newspaper and family photo archives, and from Colorado to Iowa to the Adirondacks, the project serves as a microcosm of Bailey's intensely personal and place-based body of work, which continually seeks to unearth the tangled roots of his identity. This summer, Bailey's first-ever solo museum exhibition, “Personal Geographies,” opened at the Denver Art Museum, and this fall he will release the corresponding project, “The North Fork,” in book form. Bailey is also currently at work on “Son Pictures,” an ongoing series of photographs piecing together fragments of his family's past, part of which was recently published as a New York Times op-ed titled “What a Motherless Son Knows About Fatherhood.” Leading him to take deep-dives into newspaper and family photo archives, and from Colorado to Iowa to the Adirondacks, “Son Pictures” On this episode—his and Spencer's first formal “twinterview,” recorded on their 38th birthday—Bailey talks about what it was like to grow up as an identical twin; his unusual and decidedly dysfunctional upbringing; photography as a device for commemoration; and his deep pictorial explorations of the climates, geographies, and landscapes of the American West.Special thanks to our Season 8 sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes: [00:28] Trent Davis Bailey[09:58] “The North Fork” [10:02] “Personal Geographies” at the Denver Art Museum[10:12] “What a Motherless Son Knows About Fatherhood” [10:18] “Son Pictures”[11:54] Paonia, Colorado[17:37] Elsewhere Studios[20:10] California College of the Arts[20:22] Museum of Contemporary Photography's Snider Prize[20:28] Robert Koch Gallery[22:34] The Sublime[22:38] Shaun O'Dell[23:52] The Hotchkiss Crawford Historical Museum/Society[26:42] Robert Frank[26:53] Stephen Shore[26:55] Joel Sternfeld[28:27] “A Kingdom From Dust”[28:32] The California Sunday Magazine[28:36] Stewart Resnick[28:49] “Who Keeps Buying California's Scarce Water?

They say there's no place like home. In Europe, Australia, the US and Asia - there's not enough quality housing stock to go around, and limited affordable choice in the types of homes available. The current generation of renters and buyers are connected, design-savvy and socially aware. They are driving the demand for homes that challenge traditional models of living. They've also lived through the pandemic, so they need to be able to work comfortably from home with a supportive community around them. They desire access to green space, and amenities and convenience. They want quality homes suited to a changing climate. The market's crying out for change. They also say that necessity is the mother of invention. So – could we be on the cusp of a whole new range of housing alternatives? It's looking like we could be. There are quality alternatives and ideas that turn traditional ideas of housing on its head and the industry and market are mature enough to support those trying to make a difference. To explore this we invited Michael McCormack co-founder behind small but mighty development firm Milieu to join co-lead of the residential sector, Jeremy Schluter. Michael is a passionate advocate for improved urban design and is also Deputy Chair and a member of the Board at the Centre for Contemporary Photography. Milieu are a certified B Corp™, a global community of for-profit leaders who pledge to use business as a force for good. Milieu's reputation for crafting beautifully conceived apartments driven by progressive urban design and exemplary architecture, such as Otter Place has resulted in a following in Melbourne and Sydney, with Milieu's buildings gaining fans, awards and accolades. Just don't call them a 'luxury developer'! The episode was recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-Wurrung people. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, acknowledge the custodianship of its people and the privilege and responsibility to Connect with Country.

Have you ever wondered what an art curator does – or what you might learn from one? If you have (or even if you haven't!) it turns out there are TONS of things thought leaders can learn from a professional curator, like: How to bring together multiple voices; for example, if you're putting together a conference line-up, or writing a book with multiple authors, or curating content for your blog. How to collaborate and co-create (and why it's worth doing) Why it's worth taking the time to enjoy consuming content, not just making your own. (Yes, this might just give you permission to watch reality TV!) How to build time for thinking and reflecting into your day How to get people to come out to your event or see your work How to make complex ideas accessible and understandable, without dumbing them down How to recognize and give due credit to the people who have influenced your work How to deal when you DON'T get the response you want from the thing you've made How to speak up about difficult subjects (and help other people do the same). … and so much more In this episode, I chat with Lillian O'Brien Davis — a curator and writer currently based in Toronto, ON. Lillian is the Curator of Exhibitions and Public Programs at Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography. She has curated projects at the Art Museum at the University of Toronto, Susan Hobbs Gallery, the MacKenzie Art Gallery, SUPPORT Gallery and the School of Art Gallery at the University of Manitoba. Her writing has appeared in RACAR, BlackFlash magazine, Canadian Art online, C magazine, the Brooklyn Rail, Peripheral Review and Insight Magazine. In this conversation we discover a great deal of cross-over between thought leadership and curation! Towards the end of the conversation, we also get vulnerable – we talk about the struggles of working behind-the-scenes, and what it was like for Lillian to publish an article that had the impact to alter the course of her career. There's a ton of stuff in this episode to help you think about storytelling in new ways. Listen now!

Born in 1961 and completing her degree in Audio Visual studies at The Surrey Institute, Farnham in 1986, Anna Fox began her career as a documentary photographer. Influenced by the British documentary tradition and the USA's ‘New Colourists', she chronicled new town life in Basingstoke (locally known as ‘Doughnut City') and went on to publish the monograph Work Stations (1988), a study of London Office life in Thatcher's Britain. These works were exhibited extensively as far a field as Brazil and Estonia and in Through the Looking Glass, at the Barbican Art Gallery in 1989 curated by David Mellor and Ian Jeffrey, establishing Anna as a significant figure within the field of new colour documentary.In later projects, made in the 1990's, In Pursuit (1990), The Village (1991-1992 Cross Channel Photographic Mission commission), Friendly Fire (1992) and Zwarte Piet (the Netherlands 1994-1999) Anna created a new direction inventing innovative approaches and raising questions regarding the problems of documentary practice. These projects were exhibited in a number of solo exhibitions including The Photographers Gallery, London and The Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago.By early 2000 Anna produced two autobiographical works: Cockroach Diary and My Mothers Cupboards and my Father's Words which completely turned on its head the notion of the documentary photographer as outsider. These new works investigated the personal and difficult world of domestic households and relationships bringing together a mix of image and text in two miniature book works. Later in 2003 the series Made in Europe questioned further the power relation between subject and photographer by handing over power to the subject in whork that portrayed a vision of contemporary Europe through the eyes and voices of teenagers. The projects Country Girls (1996-2001) and Pictures of Linda (1983-ongoing) introduced a collaborative element to Anna's practice: by working in partnership with the singer/songwriters Alison Goldfrapp and Linda Lunus the relationship between subject and photographer was being explored from a new perspective.Anna was shortlisted for the 2010 Deutsche Borse Photography Prize and the 2012 Pilar Citoler Prize. Her later projects, Resort 1 and Resort 2 are published by Shilt, Amsterdam, Loisirs is published by Diaphane and an new book, BLINK, will be published by Central St Martins.Anna is Professor of Photography at the University for the Creative Arts in Farnham and leads the Fast Forward Women in Photography research project.On episode 166, Anna discusses, among other things:Reflections on the past 18 monthsWhat she's been working on during that periodHaving a lot of ideasMoving away from a ‘project based mentaility'The influences of people who taught her: Graham, Parr and KnorrThe exploration of the every day41 Hewitt Road and the transition to focusing on domestic photographyHer use of text in conjunction with imagesMoving to and working in an English country villageHer project Zwarte PietMy Mothers Cupboards and my Father's WordsFast Forward Women in Photography Referenced:John DillwynMary DillwynPaul ReasPaul SearightAnthony HaugheyTessa BunneyDavid MoorePaul GrahamMartin ParrKaren KnorVal WilliamsJane AustenGilbert WhiteWilliam CobbettRaymond WilliamsMieke BalMark Sealy - AutographNaomi Rosenblaum Website | Instagram | Facebook“It's the discovery of the personal voice, I suppose, and the personal stories that you want to tell, that you can't articulate. That's why someone becomes a photographer or a filmmaker… you use photography because you can't speak it.”

To catch up on our tour through Barangaroo gardens in Sydney, please go back to part one of our podcast, https://eattmag.com/podcasts/how-to-get-to-barangaroo-gardens-in-sydney/ Tim tells us how there are over 75,000 plants, trees, and shrubs at Barangaroo gardens. One of his favorite trees is called the Casuarina in which he describes its protective nature and characteristics. View all of the images from this podcast https://eattmag.com/podcasts/photographic-visions-barangaroo-part-two/ Photo: Infrastructure NSW, an Aerial image of just some of the plantings at Barangaroo Reserve, Sydney Jactare Looking up into the tall Sandstone monuments at Barangaroo, they feature the essence of an Australian landscape with rocks jutting up sharply against the greenery of gum trees. Photo: Cullen Pope, Canon Canon EOS 550D ƒ/81/ 4000 70mm ISO3200 Nico Water splashes across the square human-made blocks that protrude out into the dark and deep blue waters of Sydney harbour. The waves besiege the rock sculpture which, over time, have been shaped and softened by the sea. Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/8 1/4000 208mm ISO3200 Zelda Native Australian trees Bright colors explode from each tree and shrub in the mid-afternoon sun, making this a one-stop-shop for photographers wanting to challenge themselves with the many aspects of the varied landscape. The curves and crevices of the enigmatic Barangaroo formations in any light pops, sings and sparkles with the hot tropical colored flora posing magnificently. Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/81/1600250mmISO3200ƒ/8 1/1600 250mm ISO3200 Cannon Barangaroo, Sydney Colors contrast in their retrospective shapes that harmoniously highlight the human-made when juxtaposed with natural forms of the surrounding vegetation. Offering hard lines and soft, with colors that grab the eye, this is a photographer's dream as it offers so many enticing and exciting compositional options. Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/8 1/1250 55mm ISO3200 Peter Walker is the American designer of Barangaroo Reserve, one of the most foremost designers in the world. Along with the Partners Landscape Architecture (PWP), in association with Sydney-based Johnson Pilton Walker Architects and Landscape Architects, they delivered the design project as a collaborative effort. Barangaroo from the air Photo: Infrastructure NSW, Barangaroo from the air in this early Aerial 2015 Moving through the gardens, we come across the Burrawang steps which are positioned at one of the entrances. Burrawang is the aboriginal name for a local Cycad plant which was known as a poisonous plant known to the local people who knew how to extract the poison. The plant was used to make starch which involved soaking it in saltwater directly before eating. This process possibly took up to two days. Le Bokeh Dianella Shot at ƒ/8 Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/8 1/640 90mm ISO3200 In the gardens of Barangaroo beautiful flowers abound throughout the year signalling various times to harvest: such as when certain species of fish are ripe for the gathering. Plants and trees also provide both shelter and shade for these activities. This bokeh image grasps the full extent of its beauty. When Cullen asks about the kinds of visitors to the reserve, Tim replies "We've had lots of schools, we've had lots of corporates, and we've had a few VIP days - we've had all types. Mainly locals, but we cater for everyone. We are part of the school curriculum. So we cover the curriculum from K from kindergarten to year 12. Salmon Flush Hues of Salmon A rainbow of color sequences from yellows and purples to mossy greens transition down to the sea line and become a feature of the unique human-made tessellations. Such an unexpected vision is a photographer's delight against the blue of the sea. Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/8 1/2500 179mm ISO3200 That can also include a geography class.which has to do with the sustainable urban renewal also connecting that with the sustainability of aboriginal culture." Excavating the cove uncovered a lot of artifacts. Többi Sandstone in time Sandstone glistens and gleams when wet and worn wonderfully by the elements of earth, wind, and water which reveals the remnants of time over 200 million years ago. Cratered and weather-worn these structures evoke notions of histories and peoples who have walked across this ancient rockscape. Photo: Cullen Pope, 550D ƒ/8 1/4000 90mm ISO3200 Tim adds, "Part of the colonial history also discovered, was when they even dug up the first boat launching slipway in Australian history. So you can actually see 1827 concrete. And that's where the boat launching was happening. It's called Munns slipway." Nectarous Some sandstone blocks almost look like the Eastern dessert, halva, with its layered sediment lines sweeping through the structures. Brilliant browns, deep reds, and fiery Ochre - hues that have been created over time by the wind. Photo: Cullen Pope, ƒ/8 1/2500 55mm ISO3200 "Entering the cutaway, we learn of its 18,000 square meters in area, including 6,500 meters of floor space. 93% of the sandstone we can see at the reserve came from underneath here that appears around the park. And there's two levels of car parking - 300 car park spaces and another level of a storage water tank, and a basement system, which recycles water from as caught from the 90,000-liter rain tanks of each of those towers." Opening Day Photo: Infrastructure NSW, Barangaroo Reserve Opening Day 2015 Later on during our tour of Barangaroo Reserve Tim also alludes to the shared paths for the bikes and scooters. Barangaroo fast become known as another great place to exercise and is now one of Sydney's favorite outdoor exercise parks for sports enthusiasts. The unmatched views of Sydney from this angle make Barangaroo Reserve a great place to enjoy outdoor space close to the city but away from the crowds to get your body moving. For students looking for a great place to get some exercise we have outlined a few points to remember Photo: Infrastructure NSW Studies show regular exercise can increase student's self-esteem and can make you feel happier. The importance of exercise for students during study breaks: After a good 12 weeks of long, hard study, the summer break is a great time to improve your mental and physical health. During the semester, it is a real challenge to get an intensive exercise program going with upcoming exams; however, the study break is a great time to get back in shape and get moving with or without the help of your devices. Sandstone at Barangaroo Reserve Photo: Infrastructure NSW, Sandstone at Barangaroo Reserve Exercise can also help prevent excess weight gain that may have occurred during the semester or help maintain weight loss. Remember, however, when you engage in most physical activities, you burn calories, and this also helps you to clear your mind and improve your cognitive functions. Physical movement also helps to boost your energy levels, and regular exercise can improve your muscle strength and increase your endurance. Exercise and training deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. Overall activity is an excellent way to get in shape and also get your mind and energy levels ready for the next semester. Studies show regular exercise can increase student's self-esteem and can make you feel happier. Dukes Pier and Nawi Cove Photo: Infrastructure NSW, Dukes Pier and Nawi Cove at Barangaroo Reserve Exercise has been shown to improve your mood and decrease feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress. It produces changes in the parts of the brain that regulate stress and anxiety. It can also increase brain sensitivity to the hormones serotonin and norepinephrine, which relieve feelings of depression. Additionally, exercise can increase the production of endorphins, which are known to help produce positive feelings and reduce the perception of pain. Furthermore, exercise has been shown to reduce symptoms in people suffering from anxiety. It can also help them to be more aware of their mental state and act as a distraction from their fears. Bridge Lawn at Barangaroo Reserve Photo: Infrastructure NSW, looking out from Bridge Lawn at Barangaroo Reserve Interestingly, it doesn't matter how intense your workout is. It seems that your mood can benefit from exercise no matter the intensity of the physical activity.

Join teams or clubs If you don't want to exercise alone or don't have a structured exercise plan, then joining a club or sports team is a great way to meet people and bond with them. Team sports lead to great stories and social interaction—from bowling to rugby, you'll meet and work together with 10 or more people. Team sports also will have you committing to a whole season of exercise and physical activity. Pick a game that's right for you, check out local community centers, and find yourself a team to play for.
