Artist Talk: Creatives in Conversation - Behind the Lens

Creatives in Conversation – behind the lens is an interactive and lively discussion amongst the exhibiting photographers in ecmunson’s Studio By Design’s 5th annual show, From Smoke ‘n Mirrors to Selfies & Beyond, hanging at the Artway Gallery in Shoppers World.

Hear about their passions with art photography, pet peeves at gallery openings, what drives them to chase the light in all kinds of weather, and why photography is a fine art. 

Light refreshments will be served after the discussion from 11:30 am to 12:15 pm with a chance to speak with the photographers: Greg Coman, Sarbina Leeder, ecmunson, Frank Myers, Andrzej Pradzynski, Sherry Prenevost, and Aditi Ganeev Sangwan and enjoy the display of their creative photographic projects.
