The timetable has been announced for this year’s International Photographers Talks series run by the Guernsey Photography Festival, sponsored by Specsavers and supported by the Digital Greenhouse.
British photographer Sian Davey will be giving a talk on her project, ‘Looking for Alice’, an autobiographical documentation of her down-syndrome daughter that won widespread critical acclaim last year.
Sian has a background in fine art and social policy and previously ran a private psychotherapy practice for 15 years. She now dedicates all her time to her photography practice and her work often focusses around an investigation of the psychological, social and political landscapes of both herself and those around her.
Sian has been the recipient of numerous awards including two years running the Taylor Wessing Portrait Prize and the Lens Culture Emerging Photographer Award and has exhibited internationally.
This is the first of four talks that will be taking place throughout the year. All the talks will also be taking place the following day at the Jersey Arts Centre.
