Inspired, students were given digital cameras to go out into the Getty Center and think critically about different ways they can frame people, architecture, and nature through the lens.
“You don’t have to go to Afghanistan to do great things,” said Olwe. Creative photographers can create a dozen great photographs right where they are—make that a million if you’re at the Getty. “It’s an architectural masterpiece, the garden is unbelievable,” he said of the Getty Center. “We don’t have to airlift them and teach them. It’s all here.”
After meeting with Olwe, students were given cameras to go back to their community and think critically about how to tell a story. Students will showcase their work at the Social and Public Arts Resource Center in Venice (SPARC) starting November 29.
Despite differences between Indian and American culture, Olwe believes photography can build bridges. “It doesn’t require words. It’s very direct,” he said. “Photography is a universal language.”
