It is made possible with the support of our friends at @SonyAlpha North America. Please feel free to share the link tinyurl.com/tpsnichole. Through #documentaryphotography, Nichole Sobecki brings attention to humanity’s fraught, intimate, and ultimately unbreakable connection to the natural world. Born in New York, she has lived in Nairobi for the past decade. Nichole’s photography has been recognized by the ASME Award, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights prize, the Leica Oskar Barnack Award, and Pictures of the Year, among others. Nichole is represented internationally by the photo agency VII, and is a member of Women Photograph and Everyday Africa. After sharing her career trajectory with us, Nichole will focus on her work documenting the unfolding impacts of the #climate crisis in #Africa through the lens of two projects: Where Our Land Was, which investigates the human consequences of significant environmental change in Somalia, and Forest Guardians, which explores the vital role the #Congo Basin plays in the ecological balance of our planet and those fighting for its future. The talk will include a Question-and-Answer session moderated by TPS Communications Director @AlexSnyderPhoto. We’ll also be giving away a Sony Zv1 camera to one lucky participant.
