EMERGE to Feature at Pingyao International Photography Festival

Filmmaking & Photography mentor Dean Golja will present his latest collection, EMERGE, at the Pingyao International Photography Festival in China this September 2024.

The transformative power of art.

EMERGE highlights the transformative power of art, focusing on 10 visual arts students at the ‘emerging’ stage of becoming practicing artists. Through life-sized digital prints in a tableau style, Dean captures each student's essence, potential and creative evolution, offering a unique glimpse into the future of visual arts.

Fostering new talent and innovative perspectives.

The Pingyao International Photography Festival, taking place September 2024, is a cornerstone event in the global photographic community. Drawing artists, curators and audiences from around the world, it provides a platform for unique works and serves as a creative space for cultural exchange. During the festival, Dean will be conducting workshops, lectures and artist talks, strengthening the connection between Melbourne and the international photographic community. 

"The EMERGE exhibition is meant as a series that highlights the transformative power of art and the students at the forefront of this perpetual quest for meaning and self-discovery."
