ON OUR TRAVELS — Street Photography Workshop
with The Nonconformist & Livia Mateiaș

Sometimes the city reveals itself only when we slow down.
When we look with patience.
When we allow the light, the people, and the small gestures to reach us.

ON OUR TRAVELS is a street photography workshop and an invitation to see differently — to turn walking through the city into a visual practice, to notice emotion in simple things, and to build the image in your mind before capturing it with your camera.
The Nonconformist, an artist from Stuttgart who lived in Zürich and London, will guide you in discovering the beauty of Timișoara through your own vision and through the lens of the camera or phone.

Livia Mateiaș, visual artist and photographer, invites you to create images from light, urban rhythms, and fragments of life that become visual poetry.

Two days of exploration, dialogue, and photography, followed by a collective exhibition where participants’ works become part of a shared story.

,,On our travels
A Street Photography workshop
Look at the world in a new way
Use your skills and passion to train your eyes to see the picture
See the emotions, the Joy and the pain, the highs and the lows
See the world in a different way
Use your camera, analog or digital or just use your phone
It’s not about perfection, its about connection with life around you
Going back to the essence of photography creating the image in your mind first, the camera and technology is just your tool to realize it
Be a photographer of Life”
The Nonconformist
