Joshua Haiden
Joshua Haiden was born in Vienna. He graduated with a major in Photography and Film in 2021, then spent a year in Los Angeles working with the USC Shoah Foundation, where he focused on the visual documentation of the Holocaust and collaborated closely with survivors to build educational materials from their stories. Alongside this he took part in a range of photography and film projects and produced his own work, which has since gained international recognition.
“It works in its little more than nine minutes because it feels like a memory — something brief, fragmented, and emotionally concentrated.”
