Sigma Artist Talk: Stephen Gill

Overview

Sigma invites you to an afternoon with British photographer Stephen Gill, sharing his work shaped by poetic curiosity, exploring place, nature, and a response to his chosen subjects and the time in which we live.

About Stephen Gill

Gill’s passion for photography was sparked by his father’s quiet influence and fuelled by an early fascination with insects, birdlife, and the tiny pond creatures he’d gather to examine under a microscope. Music, too, has long been a steady companion. Together, these early obsessions nurtured a sense of wonder, and image-making became not only a way of exploring such curiosities, but a means of responding to his surroundings and to the subjects that intrigue or move him. Over time, it has become an essential form of articulation and expression.  

Details

The artist talk is a conversation between Stephen Gill and designer and curator Greger Ulf Nilson.
When: Sunday December 7 at 1-2 PM

The Sigma Foundation was founded by Kazuto Yamaki, president of Sigma Corporation, to support and promote photography as an art form.   
Sigma is a Japanese manufacturer of photographic lenses and cameras. A deep respect for the arts guides Sigma’s engineering, as the company continues to develop and innovate products that support the passion of artists.

As part of a sincere devotion to photographic art, Sigma are inviting to a series of Artist talks during the exhibition period for 15 Fotografiska Years. This is a unique opportunity to meet four photographers, each with their own distinctive expression and story. The talks will bring us closer to their images and the creative processes behind them.
