The Compass: Curiosity - From Lens to Self Festival 2026

​How much do we stop noticing simply because we think we already know something?

​This Compass session explores curiosity as a willingness to suspend first impressions and make room for what we have yet to discover. Through simple photographic exercises, deep questions, and reflection activities you will look at something familiar from different points of view, searching for details, differences and possibilities that usually go unnoticed. It is a guided conversation that will help you turn these observations into a question to carry with you.

​The Compass format uses photography to explore values, choices and direction, connecting what you see with what matters in your life.
