PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP by ZISIS KARDIANOS and BARRY TALIS

Two highly distinctive Burn My Eye members, Barry Talis and Zisis Kardianos are joining forces to co-lead a 3-day workshop during the next Brussels Street Photography Festival. Their aim is to produce a unique collaborative project on depicting place identity and character and to hone the skills of the participants in visual storytelling, shooting for a project and editing for a reason.
The Brussels' boroughunder their photographic scrutiny will be Molenbeek which has come to be regarded as the hotbed of Islamic extremism in Europe. It is certainly a place that poses many photographic challenges but it is not devoid of a special and colourful character.

Location : Molenbeek a neighborhood in Brussels. Specific venue will be communicated after successfully registering.
