Photography is a unique medium by which we can understand the world, ourselves and what it means to be human. This is even more compelling in today's media-propelled society, where, as seen in recent events, we tend to lose touch of what this means in a steam of never-ending text and above all images. Photography should therefore be an instrument of awareness and empathy. Understanding photography is essential in order not to become an illiterate of the future. It helps you think outside the box and energize you to make compelling photos of your own. See with your heart and mind, and open your eyes to the world and its possibilities. This Thursday, MPS member, Ruben Buhagiar, will engage us to look deeper into one’s photography.
Get to know Ruben Buhagiar
“Life is beautiful”. This is the motto which guides and best describes the work of Maltese photographer Ruben Buhagiar. Born on 12th July 1970, Ruben originates from Mosta.
Ruben is a keen promoter of new practices and developments and insists in his quests in keeping photography as an art form. As typified in his various lectures and presentations, Ruben has been described as a romantic expressionist, and his images always tend to involve the viewer considerably in such a way that the viewer might in fact form part of the image. There is always a story, a fourth dimension or message involved. His style has been described as bold and sharp, subtly ironic, aimed at depicting the atmosphere of the situation and tends towards a street photojournalistic touch epitomized by the ’decisive moment’.
Other works are dreamy, conceptual, even surreal, however always real. The works are always aimed at fascinating the viewer with images he/she would have seen at some point, but rarely admit to seeing, or in actual fact feeling. Everyday life, and elements, are the inspiration. There is beauty in everything, it is real. Always thought-provoking.
