EMMANUEL MIFSUD – Photography

Emmanuel Mifsud - Self Portrait

Photography became an interest of Emmanuel in the 1970’s when he started travelling in Europe and the West Coast of North America. It was during one of his sojourns to Malta that he bought his first camera, a manually-operated 1945 Agfa Isolette, from a friend who introduced him to the technical aspect of photography.

Years later, travel nurtured his interest. Whenever the urge to capture a moment, his camera was never far away. Emmanuel’s interest in nature, urban landscapes, equine action and people are reflected in his varied portfolio of prints and positive images using a Pentax Spotmatic 500 SLR camera.

In 2008, Emmanuel’s entry, “Junction Retrospective”, shared first prize in the Local Option Arts Competition. After many years of colour photography, the black and white series of facades and streetscapes of The Junction became a point of coming full circle. He continues to use his photography to promote the West Toronto Junction for its diverse architecture, a reflection of its history and people through the passage of time.
