In this panel organised in partnership with Nikon Northern Europe and NOOR Images, photographers Bénédicte Kurzen and Tanya Habjouqa discuss the ethics of authorship within their projects. You’ll hear about the delicacy of telling intimate stories, how to work collaboratively with one’s subjects and co-authors, and when (and why) to regularly consider the power of representation. Today, we live in a world that scrutinizes the role of storyteller and author— this talk will underline that weight and teach you how world-renown photojournalists approach their visual storytelling, reclaim the narrative, all the while honouring the communities that they cover.
