Foto Tallinn 2021 curator Isabella van Marle: “At Foto Tallinn 2021 we will present work by galleries and many emerging artists with different backgrounds, and practices. Participating artists are adopting multidisciplinary approaches, experimenting with the materiality of the medium and work amongst others with computer vision photogrammetry, installation and sound. Furthermore, I wanted to showcase work by artists who reflect upon global social issues such as the pandemic and climate change. The works on show bridge many different themes and perspectives, such as the vulnerable relationship between humans and nature, art as a form of remedy, post colonialism, family, belonging and identity. I look forward to showcasing an impression of the dynamic landscape of contemporary photography and welcome local and international participants from amongst others Hongkong, Finland and Cote d’Ivoire.”
