Session 3: Artist's
Presentation
Speaker: Melanie Manchot
Melanie Manchot will talk through a
selection of recent works in relation to a performative approach
to photography and portraiture. She will discuss her use of cameras,
both moving and still, as tools to create encounters on the threshold
between staged and documentary practice. Many of these works are
made with strangers, often in public spaces, and aim to articulate
relationships between the individual and collective space. In the
most recent works the connection between personal stories and wider
historical narratives has become more important.
