Mobile Photography & Art – I’m Lecturing at the Seoul Museum of Art – about You!

I am so excited! Plans have been in the works for a few weeks for me to attend the Seoul Museum of Art, presenting a lecture on Mobile Photography and Mobile Art at their Exhibition entitled ‘DigiFun Art: Urban Scape’ . This morning my flight tickets from Heathrow to Seoul Incheon International airport (rated the world’s top international airport for the past nine years), were confirmed, as were five nights in a beautiful hotel.

I will be travelling on the 19th September 2015 and will be attending the opening ceremony at the Seoul Museum of Art on 22nd September and on the 23rd September I will present a lecture to a large audience discussing mobile art and photography, it’s history, it’s future, the community, TheAppWhisperer and most importantly the artists that make it so unique.  It is my priority to mention as many names as I can and to demonstrate your work. I will present a video as well as discuss various techniques with illustrations.

The Exhibition will run from 22nd September 2015 to 13 December 2015 and in addition as some of my own work gracing the walls of this incredible international city, I have asked specifically if I can include your work too, space is very limited.

The Seoul Museum of Art is run by the Seoul Metropolitan government and it has organised profesional exhibitions in the past including Tim Burton, as you can see here.

I am incredibly honoured to be asked to attend and present at this incredible and vibrant Museum. Also presenting will be the very talented Jeremy Sutton (see here), I am really looking forward to meeting Jeremy and getting to know him better.

Let’s do this!

Joanne Carter, creator of the world’s most popular mobile photography and art website— TheAppWhisperer.com— TheAppWhisperer platform has been a pivotal cyberspace for mobile artists of all abilities to learn about, to explore, to celebrate and to share mobile artworks. Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said. Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London. Pioneering the world’s first mobile art online gallery - TheAppWhispererPrintSales.com has extended her reach even further, shipping from London, UK to clients in the US, Europe and The Far East to a global group of collectors looking for exclusive art to hang in their homes and offices. The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art. Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine. Her own freelance photographic journalistic work is also widely acclaimed. She has been published extensively both within the UK and the US in national and international titles. These include The Times, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Popular Photography & Imaging, dpreview, NikonPro, Which? and more recently with the BBC as a Contributor, Columnist at Vogue Italia and Contributing Editor at LensCulture. Her professional photography has also been widely exhibited throughout Europe, including Italy, Portugal and the UK. She is currently writing several books, all related to mobile art and is always open to requests for new commissions for either writing or photography projects or a combination of both.
