I am honored to be included as a featured artist on the Holga Inspire (now defunct) website… a promotional site by the manufacturers of the Holga camera. The site and associated traveling exhibition is organized and promoted by the effervescent Christine So. Thank you Christine!
From the website: “Holga Inspire is an initiative of Holga Limited, a company of the Universal Electronics Industries group co-founded by Mr. T.M. Lee, who invented and continues to manufacture and develop the Holga range of cameras. The mission of Holga Inspire is to support creative artists and professional photographers who use the Holga as their medium of creative expression. We seek to connect professionals throughout the arts, media, and academia through exhibitions, events and educational programs. We want to reinvigorate classic photography and inspire creative originality. Holga Inspire strives to demonstrate the extraordinary artistic potential and the wide range of creative expression that can be realized with a Holga camera.”
