Asia Widjaja

Hi! I’m Asia, and I’m a second-year studying BSc Science and Engineering for Social Change. I started my photography journey with my digital pocket camera back in middle school, but quickly fell in love with the warmth and grain of film and haven’t stopped using it since 2023! Over the years, I’ve discovered that film photography can be very fun and innovative (like playing with double exposures to making film soups!), and I’d love to explore film further while being your Film Officer!

If I am elected, I hope to encourage greater interest in film photography through creative and accessible workshops on the various processes involved, from setting up the camera to printing film photos. I will ensure that those who wish to learn about film photography receive guidance on what it is and how it works, and that those who wish to take their photography further have a chance to experiment with different physical and chemical techniques. As someone who is still in the process of understanding analogue photography, I am excited to go on this journey with other fellow photographers and learn more while sharing my passion!
