On Your Face Collective Artist Talks
Robert Oros, Alun Davies
**Live at Ffotogallery and Online**
A discussion between 2 photographers based in Wales, whose work responds to the themes of what it is to be queer artists living and working in rural areas of both Wales and Romania.
We’ll explore the importance of documenting encounters in these spaces, whilst also having the inevitable interactions in cities for the purpose of work and connection to larger queer communities.
Oros discusses the exploration of relationships through the lens documenting themes of intimacy, identity and the impact and implications of technology in connecting queer communities in this post pandemic era.
Davies’ focus will explore what it is to return back to live in Wales discovering new queer spaces after living and working in London, viewing and discovering rural areas exploring the the duality of analogue and digital imagery and what it is to be on and offline.
