Every time we choose to show an image, we make countless decisions: the place, the space, the framing, the composition, the type of camera, the editing, the selection, the development\u2026 And each of these choices inevitably defines us.<\/p>\n

Images tell the story of our bodies, lives, hobbies, experiences, and projects. When we look at photographs, we realize we are looking at ourselves. And that is the key: to truly realize it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Online Specialization Course on Self-Knowledge through Photography is a self-paced training program with a minimum duration of five weeks. Throughout the course, you\u2019ll explore photography as a tool for self-discovery through a combination of theoretical foundations and practical exercises, grounded in humanistic and Gestalt psychology and contemporary art.<\/p>\n

The course includes all the necessary tools to understand and experience photography as a tool for personal transformation\u2014including theoretical content, practical resources, inspiration, and 26 original activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once you have access to the content, you’re free to enjoy the experience at your own pace.<\/p>\n

I invite you to approach this course with an open and curious mind\u2014like a game, a way of looking at things without preconceptions, without accepting or rejecting anything. Just living the experience and enjoying the journey of getting to know yourself, as if meeting someone for the first time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”vc_default” full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1688335074310{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;background-color: #273050 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/5″][vc_empty_space height=”40″][vc_single_image image=”54783″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1688366406632{padding-right: 30% !important;padding-left: 30% !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”15″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1738840684833{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”]<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Before We Start.<\/strong>
    \nThere are those who take photos, and those who reflect on them. I\u2019m more like the latter. When I think about the circumstances that led me to use photography as a tool for selfknowledge, I think about myself\u2014about that pivotal moment of change I was immersed in, and how photography allowed me to find myself, shape my identity, and reconstruct who I am today.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 1. Preliminary Exercises.<\/strong>
    \nHave you ever practiced self-knowledge? Have you ever thought about what you’re like\u2014what you believe or think about yourself? Let\u2019s begin!<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 2. The Right to Have a Gaze and to Create.<\/strong>
    \nTo understand what a gaze truly is, we can explore the differences between seeing, gazing, and observing.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 3. The Self-Portrait as Body Image: My Costumes, My Emotions, My Authenticity.<\/strong>
    \nYou may take photos of landscapes, nighttime scenes, or portraits\u2014but you’d be the exception if you’ve never felt the urge to step in front of the camera and take a self-portrait.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 4. Body Itinerary. My Secrets and My Fears.
    \n<\/strong>It all starts with the body\u2026 It\u2019s all body. Nothing exists outside the body. \u2014 Ivone Gebara
    \nWhat could be more personal than the body itself? We are our body, and it\u2019s the only thing that truly belongs to us. We cannot leave it\u2014we live in it, and we live with it.
    \n<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • LESSON 5. Family Album.
    \n<\/strong>Photography is a first-order scientific and artistic exercise. Thanks to photography, we get to experience more in life, as it allows us to observe things more closely and for longer periods. The fleeting record of our memories becomes a vast album of images. Life passes, but images remain. \u2014 Santiago Ram\u00f3n y Cajal<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 6. Identity and Sense of Belonging.
    \n<\/strong>Forming a personal identity is a journey that begins in the most intimate sphere. The first seed from which identity is built arises from our sense of belonging to our family of origin.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 7. Analyzing your own Work: Keywords and Discovery.
    \n<\/strong>Virtually all photography manuals focus on technique and composition. However, composition is not the most important element of a photograph. I like to think of photography as similar to the vocal apparatus: we might have excellent control over our voice\u2014its tone and frequency perfectly tuned\u2014but that mastery means little if we have nothing meaningful to sing or say.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 8. Analyzing Significant Images: Photographic Projection. The Image as an Answer.
    \n<\/strong>In this lesson, you may need to open your mind and release your psychological defenses. We\u2019ll enter the realm of the unconscious\u2014a place some believe in, and others do not. My intention is to offer you the most poetic and integrative perspective possible. After all, we can only approach what we don\u2019t know\u2014and connect with it\u2014through art and metaphor.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 9. Great Artists, Great Ways to Get to Know Yourself Through Images.
    \n<\/strong>The title of this lesson may sound redundant\u2014after all, making art and expressing yourself through it (in this case, through images) is already a way of revealing who you are. It\u2019s a way of sharing something about yourself with others, and also with yourself.<\/li>\n
  • LESSON 10. Starting a Personal Project.
    \n<\/strong>There is still much to discuss, reflect on, and express. There is still more to say and share\u2014which is why this lesson, focused on starting your own personal project, can serve as both a key moment and the culmination of this ongoing journey of getting to know yourself. This lesson will be the final exercise of the online course.<\/li>\n
