10:10
Photo: and Photography Education Trust hosted another 10:10 on 19 April 2023.
10:10 is a presentation and feedback format. 10 photographers are given no more than ten minutes to present their work, followed by 15 minutes of feedback from peers and invited respondents. 10:10 hopes to generate feedback to photographers on their ongoing and existing work and engage with work created under differing photographic practices. Along with Photo: director John Fleetwood, Tammy Langtry was the invited respondent. We were also joined by two guest photographers, Jackson Tshisekedi and Arsène Mpiana from Académie des Beaux-Arts in Kinshasa, DRC.

Tammy Langtry works as an independent curator, cultural producer and researcher from South Africa. Graduating from the University of the Witwatersrand in 2011, Langtry’s curatorial work negotiates South African Art History through urban and familial histories. Much of her exhibition making practice has considered post-apartheid (no)sense making. She is interested in curatorial practice as cultural synthesis and the bridges between historicized artistic practice to contemporary art necessities. Langtry has worked across a range of industry and institutional spaces to produce exhibitions, arts programming and other kinds of arts infrastructure. Working as a Curator, Langtry has developed several independent and institutional curatorial projects. Some of the exhibitions include; Reflections of the Cape (2014), 21BF (2014), Spatial Relations (2016), States of Grace (2017), FreeSpace (2018), Why Should I Hesitate: Putting Drawings to Work (2019), Laying Bare: Studio Process at the Museum (2019-2020), The Possibility of a Journey (2020), Waiting for Gebane (2020). Langtry’s current work includes pan-African artistic research through the infrastructure of residencies, she also contributes to independent research projects within South Africa.
