The Tree
A student photography project on a green theme
2016
In collaborations with Marija Skočir (Si) and Matevž Paternoster (Si)
Involving 22 photography students, the Tree is a thematic project which generated an exhibition with 14 projects. Under the umbrella of Museums and Galleries of Ljubljana (MGML), the project mimicked the professional life including open call, presentations, excursions, a masterclass, submission deadline, an exhibition and prizes. For the first time, a project involved students and mentors from 5 major art schools in Slovenia. The project was a satellite of the travelling exhibition Genesis by Sebastião Salgado which visited Ljubljana in the summer of 2016 and part of a larger initiative of the Ljubljana city municipality during the Green Capital of Europe 2016.
