Skyid Wang will be attending StreetFoto for the third year in a row, and this time he’s been tapped as special guest for the Full Frontal Flash 3-day workshop. If you join this workshop you’ll likely get to shoot with Skyid.
Skyid has this to say about himself and his work:
Life has been a challenge for me, because of the uncertainty. I have been moving around constantly since my teenage years, always been seen as an outsider. Photographing in streets is my fieldwork to study uncertainty, not having an agenda when I am out shooting and most photos are untitled. Street photography is not documentary, it‘s more like poetry where imagination prevails over reason, metaphors over facts. Uncertainty is the energy flowing in streets, legitimate and fundamental.
Started street photography as a hobby in 2014, I have been a regular contributor to the internet media. In 2016, I became a member of Full Frontal, an international collective dedicated to flash photography with a focus on the street and candid situations. Been exploring film photography since late 2016, my workflow now includes hand tank developing, scanning and darkroom printing.
Besides street photography, I also work as a documentary photographer for weddings, parties and other events. Portfolios are available upon request.
