Joey L.'s Abyssinia: The Cradle of Mankind [International LA Photographic Art Exposition] January 14, 2011

Joey will meet with collectors at the photokunst booth (B 206) on Saturday, January 15 from 5 to 7 pm.

Joey L. is a young Canadian photographer and filmmaker whose meteoric rise has taken the photography world by storm. His photographic journeys provide him with a unique perspective through his nomadic lifestyle. Joey combines his love of travel and photography by documenting his trips and the experiences he shares with the local people and tribes. Joey becomes intimately involved, absorbing himself within their cultures and traditions, providing insight into their lives through his photography.

The Joey L. signature, as he describes, is "to achieve an atmospheric look with cinematic lighting, paying homage to the old masters with a modern spin, yet with a vivid tonal range."
