Artist talk
Digital Artist Talk: Sidewalk Stories by Futuro Berg Fredes
In a society dominated by cars, choosing public transport or walking becomes a conscious act. In Sidewalk Stories, Futuro Berg presents street portraits and images of urban scenes captured while traveling by bus or on foot in Washington DC, Los Angeles, and San Diego in the USA.
Sidewalk Stories invites the viewer to connect with those who move through cities on foot or by public transport. It becomes a story of belonging, resilience, and the humanity that can arise when we slow down and see the world from a street perspective.
Futuro Berg Fredes is a Chilean photographer and documentary storyteller who explores issues related to migration, human relations, and social justice. In 2008, he emigrated from Chile to Europe, where he lived in several different countries before coming to Sweden.
Welcome to listen to the artist talk between CFF’s Kristyna Müller and Futuro Berg Fredes, which will be broadcast on Centrum för fotografi’s Instagram at 1 PM on Friday, March 14.
