Visiting Lecturer: Mishka Henner

Current Photography students at USW (Caerleon Campus) are looking forward to welcoming Mishka Henner this Thursday.

Thursday 2th February @ 2.30pm

Mishka was born in Brussels in 1976 to a French mother in exile from

communist Poland. She met his English father in 1978 and they moved to

Manchester in 1994. He grew up in the age of the print screen button and

now lives in the age of big data.

Outposts (2010), Dutch Landscapes (2011), No Man’s Land (2011-2012), and

Feedlots (2012-2013). He was awarded the ICP Infinity Award for Art in 2013
