This is Cuba: Photographer's talk

Join British author, curator and photographer, Dr James Clifford Kent (Royal Holloway, University of London) for a talk on Cuba and photography.

Over the course of the past two decades Kent has travelled regularly to Cuba with different photographic projects; working in both urban and rural settings and collaborating with renowned Cuban photographers. Specialising in documentary and portrait photography – and using mainly iPhone, compact rangefinder cameras and natural light – his projects focus on wide ranging themes and subjects. From portraits of guajiros (Cuban peasants) and Cuban ballet dancers to coverage of historic events (including the former Cuban leader Fidel Castro’s funeral procession from Havana to Santiago de Cuba in 2016), Kent’s work has captured the changing face of the island and its people.

This talk represents an excellent opportunity to learn more about the stories behind his photographs as well as the people in front of the lens.

By invitation only.
