“Then & Now: Photographers Repicturing Their Archive in 2020” presented with Everyday Projects, HuffPost, and RYOT
THEN & NOW: PHOTOGRAPHERS REPICTURING THEIR ARCHIVE IN 2020 presented with Everyday Projects, HuffPost, and RYOT Featuring Sheila Pree Bright, Yolanda Escobar Jiménez, Brian Otieno, Xiaojie Ouyang, and moderated by Christy Havranek and Elie Gardner Photoville 2020 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWIngs with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation This year–amidst the compounded pandemics of COVID-19 and systemic racism, amidst global social upheaval–thirteen photographers returned to places and moments they have photographed before, to make new images and record the visual impact of 2020. Their photographs reveal evolutions in our interactions and traditions, how we use (or have stopped using) public spaces, inequality and unrest, economic strain, and demands for justice. Photographers Sheila Pree Bright (Atlanta, U.S.A.), Yolanda Escobar Jiménez (Quito, Ecuador), Brian Otieno (Nairobi, Kenya), and Xiaojie Ouyang (Wuhan, China), discuss what it was like to return to places they had photographed before and make new photographs. Moderated by Christy Havranek of HuffPost, and Elie Gardner of The Everyday Projects, they will discuss their findings, their photographs, why they chose those specific places, and what their photographs may tell us as we collectively look for a roadmap to our futures. photoville.nyc/online/then-now-photographers-repicturing-their-archive-2020/

Nichole Sobecki - Foundry Presentation
Nichole Sobecki gives a presentation at the 2019 Foundry Photojournalism about the complexities around photojournalism created by community "insiders" and "outsiders" and talks about her work with Everyday Africa, a photoblog and book of collective of photographers capturing daily life in Africa. The Foundry Photojournalism Workshop offers majority world students who could not otherwise afford it a chance to learn from some of the world's most well respected photojournalists and photography professionals. Nichole Sobecki is a photographer and filmmaker based in Nairobi, Kenya. She is represented internationally by the photo agency VII. Nichole graduated from Tufts University before beginning her career in Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria, focusing on regional issues related to identity, conflict, and human rights. From 2012-2015 Nichole led Agence France-Presse’s East Africa video bureau, and was a Rory Peck Awards News Finalist for her coverage of the Westgate mall attacks in Kenya. In 2018 she was awarded by Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights prize in new media for her images documenting Europe's response to the the African migration crisis. Nichole's work has been recognized by Pictures of the Year, the One World Media Awards, the Alexandra Boulat Award for Photojournalism, The Magenta Foundation, and The Jacob Burns Film Center, among others. She is also a contributor to Everyday Africa, a collection of images shot on mobile phones across the continent, and an attempt to showcase the moments missing from dramatic news images — everyday life that is neither idealized nor debased. Nichole aims to create photographs and films that demand consideration for the lives of those represented – their joys, challenges, and ultimately their humanity. She has completed assignments throughout Africa, the Middle East and Asia for National Geographic, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, Foreign Policy, The Financial Times Magazine, The Guardian, and Le Monde, and her work has been exhibited internationally.
