Join award-winning photographer and documentary filmmaker, Marina Dodis, to dive deep into iconic imagery depicting the climate emergency.
Photographers and photojournalists have kept us on the edge of our seats for decades as the climate emergency has evolved from “warming” to “crisis” to “boiling point”. In this visual guest lecture, award-winning photographer and documentary filmmaker Marina Dodis will talk us through some of the iconic imagery of the climate emergency so far, with a candid look at their backstory. Join us for a fascinating talk as we discover who is in the picture, who isn’t, and why any of this matters.
