Local student photographers share their snaps
According to Dhlamini, OSJ is an empowerment space that does more than offer technical equipment and access to photography resources.
These photographs were captured by junior and senior photographers from Of Soul and Joy (OSJ).
OSJ students shared the photographs recently during the project presentation at Buhlebuzile Secondary School where they were expected to present projects that they have been producing.
They are supported, guided and monitored by the OSJ team including South African photographer and OSJ project manager Jabulani Dhlamini, Thandile Zwelibanzi, Sibusiso Bheka, Katiso Mabuza, English teacher Nomthandazo Nkwanyana and Tshepiso Mazibuko who teaches visual literacy.
According to Dhlamini, OSJ is an empowerment space that does more than offer technical equipment and access to photography resources.
“It enables the youth to express and explore storytelling with photographs along with themes such as identity. It is also a space to reflect and speak about personal trauma,” said Dhlamini.
