CEDRIC DÉLSAUX – STAR WARS CGI – FRANCE

Cédric Delsaux has spent nearly two decades dismantling our conventional perceptions of reality and photography’s relationship. His artistic objective is to transform photography into a conduit for Fiction, altering how we perceive reality.

Originally recognised for his work in advertising photography, Delsaux has since carved a niche for himself with personal, long-term photographic series. His series, “Dark Lens,” transports characters from the Star Wars universe into real settings. This endeavour garnered recognition from none other than George Lucas himself.

In subsequent works, Cédric Delsaux’s artistic journey culminates in his series “Dark Corporation.” Through his lens, Delsaux orchestrates a symphony where Star Wars characters and vehicles integrate into earthly landscapes, inviting reflection on the porous divide between fact and fiction.

MANUEL SIEBER – STREET – GERMANY

Manuel Sieber is a Munich based photographer who specialises in black and white photography. His work is often abstract and incorporates elements of surrealism, geometry & high contrast.

Inspired by his father, Albert Sieber, who has been a photographer for over 40 years and watching him develop his work in the family basement, it took Manuel almost 33 years to find his own way into photography. His creative development started with music, in his childhood bedroom with 2 turntables. He began to remix songs and ended up in producing his own records for his label, that he has been running for 10 years.

After this chapter in his life was closed, he searched for something to satisfy his creative needs. Again, his father inspired him and introduced him to the world of street photography. This is where his photography story begins, he bought a secondhand camera, and he never left the house without it again.

BENJ STORY – TRAVEL | ANALOG 35MM – UK

Benj Story, aged 24 and based out of Leeds in England, has been a photographer for the past 7 years shooting anything which has caught his eye but landscapes was where it all started for him. 

He now travels the world to usually the more dramatic of landscapes to capture them in the analogue format, visiting places such as the French and Swiss alps as well as places such as Iceland and the Italian dolomites.

His interest for analogue photography started in lockdown and was something he quickly became obsessed with as his digital workflow had began to loose its spark. Since getting into the analogue format he feels he has learnt and grown a lot as a photographer and he enjoys the slower pace that it brings.

My Mentor Programme

One of our primary objectives at MIPP is to promote professional photography. This aim can only be achieved by continuously tutoring and mentoring our younger members, thus giving them the assistance and support they require. To further sustain and maintain the quality and level of our members’ achievements, the MIPP have a specific service called ‘My Mentor’.

The aim of this is to provide a new customized mentoring service to our members. A member who enrols in this programme will be provided with a personal qualified mentor of his/her choice for a period of 6 months. Members can enroll to several sessions repeatedly.  The available mentors regularly change.

Each month the enrolled members will submit two emails with five images each, to their chosen mentor; the latter will provide the necessary feedback on submitted photographs via email.

‘My Mentor’ is not a replacement of the mentoring service already provided to those members who submit a panel for the MIPP qualifications; the panel mentoring is still an ongoing service. Our aim is to have this project working alongside the existing monitoring service and consequently working hand in hand; this will supply our members with an additional facility to further enhance their abilities. All members should benefit from this project, especially those who are new to photography and all those who wish to start aspiring to acquire any of our qualifications.

Payment for this service will be €50, payable in advance. Download Form from here.
