Sungchul Lee (USA)
"The Stranger"
My work begins with unresolved trauma from my years as a photojournalist. Through photography, installation, and performance, I explore emotional states of erasure and reconstruction. I primarily work by transforming my apartment space based on my imagination. By living within these altered environments, I deeply engage with space and gradually reconstruct personal memories. Through this ongoing process, I find myself moving beyond trauma and raising deeper questions about humanity.
Print price: $300.00

Laszlo Poder
In 2025, when Andréa Speranza, Founder and Executive Director of Camp Courage, invited the Photographic Guild of Nova Scotia to document the program, Laszlo eagerly signed on—following the nine-day camp from start to finish. Twenty-five youth aspiring to first-responder careers trained with mentors from the Coast Guard, Police/RCMP, Paramedic, and Firefighter communities. Laszlo's images celebrate their grit, teamwork, and the confidence that grows when skill meets support.
Prints are available for purchase. Pricing varies by size, and a portion of proceeds will be donated to Camp Courage 2026.
