The Domino Effect in Photography | Torrance Festival of Ideas

Laetitia Vançon

When we talk about photography, there are three major aspects to consider: its role, its impact, and its limitation. It is limiting because it cannot tell the whole story. Yet, it is this limit that lets in space for the viewers to fill the gaps with their own personal narratives. What we have is a virtual bridge that can connect us emotionally across continents, and despite our differences, through awareness, action, and even conflict. This to me is the domino effect of photography.

Laetitia Vançon is a French freelance award-winning photographer based in Munich, Germany. Her work appears in the New York Times, National Geographic, Geo Magazine, Libération, and Spiegel, among others.
