#16 Ex-Voto, Alys Tomlinson

The Large Format Photography Podcast

We are truly honoured to be joined this week by 2018 Sony Photographer Of The Year, Alys Tomlinson. Amongst many topics, Alys talks with us about her 5 year Ex-Voto project that documents landscape, people and faith from Lourdes through Ireland and Poland. We discuss the background to the project, as well as it’s ideas and thoughts it provokes.

A truly inspiring artist
