Panel Discussion: Imaging as a Cultural Connector
Complementing the exhibition, a panel discussion brought together Ling Liu (OPPO), Tina Signesdottir Hult, Norwegian art photographer and Hasselblad Master, and Virginie Heloin, Vice President, Global Head of Brand Solutions at Warner Bros. Discovery, to explore the evolving role of mobile imaging in cultural storytelling.
The panelists shared a common view that mobile photography has become a powerful cultural connector—lowering creative barriers and enabling more people to capture authentic moments with immediacy and emotional clarity. As smartphones continue to narrow the gap with traditional professional cameras, mobile imaging is increasingly shaping how stories are created, shared, and experienced worldwide.
They also highlighted the importance of cross-industry collaboration in empowering creators. Through complementary perspectives from OPPO's imaging innovation, Hasselblad's professional visual aesthetics, and Discovery Channel's global storytelling, the discussion underscored a shared commitment to supporting creators and amplifying diverse voices on a global stage.
