This masterclass with Pieter Hugo explores the role of narrative and dialogue in photographic practice, examining how images construct, question, and complicate meaning through juxtaposition and symbolism.
Drawing from Hugo’s work, participants will be invited to bring projects finished or in progress, in digital and print formats, and explore approaches to building visual narratives that engage with identity, power, and representation. The masterclass also considers the ethical and conceptual implications of working with subjects and contexts.
Through lectures, discussions, and in-person critiques, the programme encourages participants to move beyond single images toward cohesive bodies of work, developing a deeper understanding of how a through- line can shape both the reading and impact of their photographs.
