The Nature of Photography
May 29 - Jul 16 2022
16 Viljoen St, Lorentzville
The Nature of Photography is an exhibition that is premised on the idea that in a world full of images, among the millions of photographs being created and shared each day, we take in visual content and form at the speed of light, never growing tired of the over saturation of scenes, viewpoints and snippets we've consumed in the endless pursuit of that unknown moment that we instantly recognize. As we continue to satisfy our insatiable desire for photographs, seeing pieces of our world through many different eyes – we can ask ourselves if we've ever really seen it all. And so, with a renewed sense of wonder and curiosity; we begin to contemplate again the nature of photography.
