Jimmy Nelson has been photographing indigenous cultures all his life, but during the recent global restrictions, he began to realize that you don't have to travel far to the ends of the world to discover exceptional human beauty. With this in mind, Jimmy started making art closer to home, resulting in his latest project “Between the Sea and the Sky” about the Netherlands, his most personal work to date.
Why is identity so important? How do you find your identity? What is the message you want to communicate with your work and how are you going to achieve it? In his lecture, Jimmy personally takes you to the ultimate search for self.
Jimmy Nelson aims to share the diversity of humanity with the world. We are all unique but at the same time the same. His dream is to connect people with a sense of respect for themselves and each other and the natural world.
In today's society, almost every company is working to be more inclusive and to implement more diversity within the organization. Diversity not only poses challenges, but also offers opportunities. It is important to harness the power of diversity. Diverse teams are more innovative because they think from different angles. What can you do yourself, as an individual, employee or CEO, to achieve this goal? Together with Jimmy you will explore the boundaries and tackle this adventure! The horizon is infinite and offers new perspectives.
What is the message Jimmy is trying to convey with his project and what did he have to do to achieve that goal? What is the ultimate ART of his message?
What has Jimmy encountered during his travels and meetings with different cultures? Why is vulnerability and modesty so important? Jimmy will tell you how awareness of your own behavior can influence your connection in a positive way.
How do you bring people into synergy for 'the perfect picture' and does this even exist? Jimmy tells visually that it's not about the photo, but that the connection and richness of the journey itself is the ultimate destination.
All these questions and more will be answered during his exciting lecture where Jimmy gives you a compelling insight into his world. By being creative and groundbreaking, Jimmy often surprises himself with new insights during his own lectures. By interactively involving the audience, he ensures that this is not just a lecture, but an enriching experience!
The recent pandemic has changed our lives, including in the workplace. By working remotely, we as people have literally started to live more distantly. We feel less connection with our colleagues whom we have seen more online than in real life in recent years. The new trend of online communication using ever evolving technology is only increasing. The Metaverse is right around the corner. Jimmy wants to wake us up to the implications of this and the importance of always keeping one foot in the Human-verse.
Jimmy knows better than anyone the importance of connection. Connecting is essential for gaining trust and building a meaningful relationship, not only with another person, but also with yourself. Until you understand yourself you cannot make a valuable connection with anyone else. What can we learn from him to reconnect with ourselves and our fellow man, and maintain that deeper connection?
