S2:EP.1 Framed Focus: Capturing Cultural Narratives through Contemporary Photography with Kim Lang

In this episode, I sit down with award-winning photographer Kim Lang to explore the power of visual storytelling and the role of photography in shaping cultural memory.

Known for his bold, theatrical portraits and deep-rooted narratives, Kim takes us on a journey from his early influences, shaped by travel, heritage, and academia, to his current practice redefining contemporary photography.

We dive into the stories behind his standout projects, Odyssey of Reconnection and Nations of the Atlantic, unpack the intersection of documentary and theatrical styles in his work, his views on the ethical responsibility of photographers, and what it means to tell the truth through image.

Kim also opens up about the challenges of working in fashion and portraiture, the emotional depth of his work, and the importance of capturing identity and heritage with care and intention.

Whether you're a photographer, creative, or simply curious about the stories behind powerful imagery, this episode offers a thoughtful look at the art of capturing the unseen.
