time <strong>and</strong> immediately feel part of this family.<br />
The strength of <strong>ISSP</strong> is precisely that of being an<br />
experience different to <strong>the</strong> majority of educational<br />
experiences in <strong>the</strong> field of photography. The fact of<br />
finding yourself in a situation of virtual isolation, in<br />
forced contact with <strong>and</strong> exclusively with <strong>the</strong> members<br />
of <strong>the</strong> "family" is <strong>the</strong> key. The expression of<br />
renunciation, <strong>the</strong> discovery of new practices dictated<br />
by <strong>the</strong> denial of previous ones. Connections that<br />
go beyond <strong>the</strong> mere academic <strong>and</strong> formative aspect<br />
linked to photographic practice are born <strong>and</strong> develop<br />
continuously.<br />
<strong>ISSP</strong> is something that, I can affirm from direct experience,<br />
stays inside you <strong>and</strong> makes you build that<br />
desire of transformation, so essential for <strong>the</strong> growth<br />
of every human being, <strong>and</strong> even more for <strong>the</strong> career<br />
of an artist.<br />

<strong>ISSP</strong> is like a braid - people from all over <strong>the</strong> world<br />
with very different life experiences coming toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />
for an intense week in summer, to <strong>the</strong>n go off on<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir own to possibly meet again. <strong>ISSP</strong> is <strong>the</strong> most<br />
exciting event of photography (<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> world) of<br />
<strong>the</strong> year, that takes place in Latvia <strong>and</strong> brings toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />
fantastic people from everywhere.<br />
