About this Event

Sandra Mickiewicz is a Polish documentary and portrait photographer who lives and works in London. Sandra has a fascination for analogue photography and her work has been published by the British Journal of Photography, The New York Times, The New Yorker, Financial Times, New Statesman and The Telegraph. In this talk, she will reflect on the nature of creativity, which we all have and use on an everyday basis. It is not just about creating a new artwork, a song or writing a book. It is also about problem solving and using our imagination.

She will build on her recent project, “The Healers”, documenting the use of ayahuasca in Peru and published in Photo Vogue
