In this edition, the 12 finalists were whisked away to a resort in Abraka, Delta State, Nigeria, for a 14day workshop (from the 14<sup>th</sup> – 28<sup>th</sup> November) which also gave them time to relax as they focused on creating their various pieces.

This year’s LagosPhoto theme: “What’s Next Africa? -The Hidden Stories” aims to use the power of photography to represent the hidden stories on the continent as opposed to the over represented, sensationalised, dramatic images on Africa popular across the globe.<br />

Ugandan photographer and designer Arthur Kisitu has his own studio in Kampala. It is a place of creativity, innovative designs and a place where people meet. He is fascinated by lighting. His presence in Lagos is connected to the work of Dutch photographer Andrea Stultiens, whom he met in Kampala. She wanted to document Ugandan history. Arthur told her about his grandfather who had build his own personal very visual archive. This became the basis of 'The Kaddu Wassa Archive’, which is a wonderful visual biography of Kaddu Wasswa, and in a sense a biography of common people in Uganda over the last 40 years. Wasswa - Arthur's grandfather - is a man who played an important role in his community as a teacher and social worker. The archive now travels the world. At the moment, Arthur works, among others, in slums in Kampala together with local residents on photography projects.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002476709613108052.post-39082330495978345362011-10-11T04:07:00.000-07:002011-10-11T04:11:53.258-07:00Alfredo D'amato: Pushing limits in Angola<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuWSdwDtqogluAjvs-58PyrNroJlDbDPRJb8pThMQiWFDNIv8pt8PPOvpuyrCi-FVZ2Xottt-ODgdsA1DfavooglEiklzai8bGTxb3jBPpTFLwJo0SYkIyY1wCHNzD0GOD-Q8Zy5nYS8A/s1600/Alfredo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuWSdwDtqogluAjvs-58PyrNroJlDbDPRJb8pThMQiWFDNIv8pt8PPOvpuyrCi-FVZ2Xottt-ODgdsA1DfavooglEiklzai8bGTxb3jBPpTFLwJo0SYkIyY1wCHNzD0GOD-Q8Zy5nYS8A/s400/Alfredo.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />
Alfredo D'amato resides in Italy. His work at the LagosPhoto festival is part of a series about Luanda, Angola. The Luanda series is part of a series he made about ex-Portugese colonies. "Angola to me, was super intense. It made me realize I had capacities I never knew I had. Luanda is a city originally built for five hundred thousand citizens and nowadays it is home to five million people. There is a lot of pollution, I got sick, it is the most expensive city in the world, the divide between rich and poor is extreme, there is hardly any electricity and people were aggressive towards the camera. Man, it was extreme in almost every way. But to be honest, I like to be pushed to the extreme. Because also on the same hand, the music is wonderful and you see people working hard to survice. It was a great experience.'Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002476709613108052.post-65987529926270034952011-10-10T10:14:00.000-07:002011-10-10T10:14:17.811-07:00Lagos Photo festival : Party in the Park<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">On monday all participating photographers came together to review the works of other photographers. It was very inspiring to everybody. Some amazing talents like Barbara Minishi, D'Mayo, Martin Kharumwa and among others, showed their work. There were interesting discussions about framing, killing your darlings, lighting, but also on identity, social issues and who you want to be as an artist. Obviously there also was a lot of discussions among the professional photographers about what was interesting and what was not. Put three photographers together and it is quite likely they disagree after 5 minutes :). That said, the general atmosphere was very optimistic and people were truly inspiring and helping each other.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002476709613108052.post-72991307468820271582011-10-10T01:34:00.000-07:002011-10-10T01:34:58.504-07:00Emeka Ebeniro: Closer to Lagos<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6ivcDzifnT55qodGr4bBAIZZrL-onYxlIiWKv9TqPVVMcaz71uFxRf-YCdZmmNNSacF_KwrcYdPhX4iUePtDEPdrvjriSeBdbeQ2U2NT9m1qyga2-SasnsiogUEJQtx0KD0WiqeZUjWs/s1600/DSC_0742.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6ivcDzifnT55qodGr4bBAIZZrL-onYxlIiWKv9TqPVVMcaz71uFxRf-YCdZmmNNSacF_KwrcYdPhX4iUePtDEPdrvjriSeBdbeQ2U2NT9m1qyga2-SasnsiogUEJQtx0KD0WiqeZUjWs/s400/DSC_0742.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">Emeka Ebeniro is a young photographer from Nigeria. Besides working in an advertising agency, he loves his work as a documentary photographer, especially in Lagos. His series is about an enormous fire in Lagos. 30 houses got burned and luckily nobody died. The houses were made of wood. The work got the attention of the African Artist' Foundation. Last year he participated in workshops as a course and he took the bold step to dedicate his time more to documentary photography. "I am very proud my work got selected. I am learning a lot here. The work of the other photographers is inspiring. I want to invest more in my documentary work. There is still so much to do.'</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002476709613108052.post-3308841714634596352011-10-10T01:30:00.001-07:002011-10-10T01:30:51.492-07:00Peter DiCampo: Life without Lights<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTm7M9s-9c4lqW65McOe5o5WeWo6sRhrkeTIjF9ZyrYUsb6V0FQgKkvELyvRZHo6awAsqE8gYJMRhlynPMngQigeywcfGtADDqx9hmCPXNAYsXOAnHeAWJ76PA1mvD3-zEwM-psXUL034/s1600/Peter+DiCampo+Lighting.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTm7M9s-9c4lqW65McOe5o5WeWo6sRhrkeTIjF9ZyrYUsb6V0FQgKkvELyvRZHo6awAsqE8gYJMRhlynPMngQigeywcfGtADDqx9hmCPXNAYsXOAnHeAWJ76PA1mvD3-zEwM-psXUL034/s400/Peter+DiCampo+Lighting.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="400" /></a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The work of Peter DiCampo is situated in a dark corner of the exhibition. The work shows photo's of people living in the dark. Visitors need lights to see the photo's. The photo's are part of a enormous project called Life Without Lights, where Peter examines energy poverty, the causes and the solutions in many different countries</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">'It is wonderful to be here. I have had many conversations about the photo's with visitor. And I think that looking at the photo's using the lights gives it a new dimension, it is a great effect. People told me that they now had the feeling of being me, the photographer taking the photo's. People also told me they didn't realize that there are so many people living without electricity and that the impact is so big. In general it is great to be here and interact with the audience and the other photographers.'</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7002476709613108052.post-167301248115932242011-10-09T22:13:00.000-07:002011-10-09T22:13:17.563-07:00Portfolio Reviews, Workshops and DiscussionsNow the the Lagos Photo Festival is in full drive, it's on the next one on our program and that is Portfolio Reviews, Workshops and Discussions with the best of the best.
