mindful approach
This lecture explores a contemplative philosophy of street photography that prioritizes intentionality over speed by using medium format film cameras. The author examines how specific tools, such as the Hasselblad, Rolleiflex, and Plaubel Makina, influence the photographer's rhythm and creative perspective across various Asian cities. By choosing manual equipment and limited exposures, the artist moves away from rapid-fire shooting to focus on careful observation and emotional resonance. The text highlights how black and white filmand specific technical choices help transform ordinary urban moments into poetic narratives. Ultimately, the source serves as an invitation for photographers to embrace a mindful approach that honors the subjects and the environment through the art of slow seeing.
