A course by Marcos Zegers
Mark Zegers is a Chilean photographer with a degree in architecture. His documentary photography work focuses mainly on geopolitical and territorial conflicts, which he produces in a contemporary and multidisciplinary style.
Among his projects is an investigation that was published in The New York Times about the young people who left Chile for Russia in 1973 and were unable to return to their country. The long-term project that earned him a POY Latam 2019 award in the environment category is his series focused on the history of extraction (mining) in the Atacama Desert, Chile, and its current relationship with lithium in South America. This visual essay has been exhibited in Chile, Shanghai, and Paris as well as at the AIPAD Photography Show 2019 in New York, the Photo London fair, and as part of World Press Photo's 6x6 program.
