Therapeutic Photography and Self-Knowledge
Photography, as a therapeutic tool, aims to enhance the health, well-being, and personal growth of individuals through the utilization or creation of images.
Photography changes everything
Photography, since its invention, has changed our lives in every way, what we know, how we represent ourselves, what we discover and document.
Photography as a social function
Can images change the world we live in?
This great question can haunt those who make documentary photography, those who find spaces, places and communities in the world that need help or global support, and those who say that what is happening can’t happen in an ethical and civilized society.
Looking to Remember. Photography and Memory.
The evocative power of images has been widely studied. Through them, forgotten memories and stories, which are part of both individual and collective memory, can be verbalized and even reclaimed from oblivion. In this sense, the photographic image is an effective tool for promoting historical discourse and preserving personal memory.
