OLIVER LANG
“I believe that, more than ever before, photography is about a community and a culture, rather than the camera.” – Olly. Photography is a language, an expression of culture, diversity, and can be a prime platform for togetherness. This year Artsweek is all about Coming Together so UNSW PhotoClub thought what better way to draw a close to Artsweek than to invite a guest photographer that could sum it all up for us.
This week we invite Oliver Lang, a.k.a. Olly, a professional street and documentary photographer who shoots with nothing but an iPhone. Olly has been featured on iPhoneography.com and Eyeem.com and print publications such as the Daily Telegraph and was recently interviewed for the ABC Art Nation television series.
