Event: Photographic Slideshow
Host: Moray House Trust
Date: Thursday 6th November 2014
Moray House Trust hosted another photographic slideshow at the beginning of November. The two local photographers whose work was featured on this occasion were Karran Sahadeo and Roshana Mahadeo.
Roshana’s presentation, “Journey through the Lens,” described how her love of photography inspired her to develop from, in her words, “just a person with a camera” to photo hobbyist to professional photographer. Her ‘Journey’ showed several aspects of her work: landscapes, seascapes, people and architecture.
Roshana Mahadeo is a photographer by profession. When not working, she enjoys taking trips around the country to enjoy Guyana’s beauty and to document it with her camera. As she likes to say: “In my camera’s eye I now see the world from a different perspective, finer details, truer beauty”.
Karran is a multimedia artist interested in the tension between representation and recollection. Karran‘s presentation, “Photography and Memory,” was about the relationship between memory and technology and how what we remember is not always what we capture on camera, on film or by some other means.
Karran is a Guyanese artist with previous works exhibited internationally in both the United States and the United Kingdom. He is currently a member of faculty at the Burrowes School of Art in Georgetown, Guyana where he teaches photography and graphic design.
