Del Loewenthal is a psychologist who developed an approach to photography that categorises images into four distinct categories depending on who has the power in the relationship and who benefits from the production of the image.
As an individual task ahead of next week we were asked to construct our own Ethical Window…..
Today’s seminar was to discuss Ethics in Photography and how it impacts all of photography including the photographer, subjects, publishers and wider world.
We were split into groups of two and tasked with discussing what we thought about a number of questions.
This week we visited our sketchbooks and understand how to produce a successful example. We also had a very personal experience with Alice sharing her practice for her Degree and Masters.
