Head On Conversations

Head On Conversations are panel-style discussions designed to explore topics raised by and about photography and to provoke thought to inform and inspire.

Speakers include experts and featured exhibitors from various areas of expertise, including photography, curatorial, public office and administration, academia, journalism and environmental practice.

One of the highlights of the Head On Photo Festival, Head On Conversations provides an opportunity to explore, understand and action the social challenges raised by the range of exhibitions throughout the Festival.

Conversation:  More impact than you think

Even the most remote people are now accessible to the global village thanks to travel technology and digital storytelling. How do you collect and retell people’s stories from around the globe that show our differences, similarities and experiences whilst minimising your environmental impact?  

This Head On Conversation will explore the environmental price of photography, the option of virtual travel and the steps we can take to minimise our environmental impact. 

Moderator: Dr Helen Vatsikopoulos, Journalist, Doctor of Creative Arts. Academic, Industry Professional Fellow at the University of Technology Sydney , Documentary Maker, Writer.
