Light Painting Workshop lead by Mounir Ben Haj Khalifa
Saturday 30th August 2014
The exhibition of old photos is an exploration into the visual memory of Mahdia in order to discover images of city, which has changed over time. Generations of people have altered the face of the city with construction that has created both positive and negative effects. This show is a nostalgic look at a Mahdia that no longer exists.
Photographs were collected and flattened on wood by the artist Rached Farhat. Some very damaged photographs were restored by photographer Ayoub Ben Amor.
On the 30th of August a workshop of Light Painting lead by the photographer and trainer Mounir Ben Haj Khalifa, Vice-President of the Association Tunisia Photography was held. This technique consists of printing the effects of LED lights on the sensor of a camera in a dark environment. The process often produces striking visual effects.
