Have you ever wondered how a single image can reveal more about you than you might think? Our inner world is rich with symbols, memories, and emotions that often elude verbal expression. Yet, images possess a unique power—they can unlock doors to our unconscious, helping us connect with our deepest selves.
On April 12, 2024, the book You Are What You Look At was released, the first in the Photography to Get to Know Yourself collection, a project aimed at raising awareness about the transformative benefits of photography.
Each individual directs their gaze toward what captivates and interests them. No school can instruct you on what should capture your interest or where your gaze should be directed. Based on this, I suggest exploring the different types of gazes through a simple classification that may resonate with your current perspective in the present moment. We will define four gaze types: contemplative, expressionist, documentary, and conceptual.
It was a great find. Few books speak so clearly about the processes of therapeutic photography and the use of photography in personal spaces and social intervention.
In Photography to Grow, you’ll find all the tools you need to run a creative photography workshop for children and teens: theory, practical content, inspiration, and activities.
