Event details
Digital manipulation of images, once a novelty in photography, has come of age as a practice that is beginning to share common ground with documentary photography. Reality and virtuality are coming together in a new manner of telling stories, in this case stories about our collective memory.
Won Seoung Won (South Korea) tells an idyllic story about dreams from her childhood. My Age of Seven, nurtured by Korean legends, is about a little girl who wakes up in her room, overgrown with plants, realising that her mother has disappeared. It is the beginning of a surreal journey through the town and countryside.
