Award-winning photographer David Ta-

photography April 27 at KALA in Astoria.
“Exorcism in Ethiopia,” by David Tasinsky.
ASTORIA/WARRENTON/SEASIDE KOA
ASTORIA — KALA presents
award-winning photographer
David Tesinsky in a pho-
to-screening event at 8 p.m.
Wednesday, April 27. Doors
open at 7:30 p.m., KALA
is located at 1017 Marine
Drive, and there is a $10 cov-
er at the door.
Tesinsky is an award-win-
ning photographer from
Prague who is currently vis-
iting the U.S. and working
on a piece about the under-
ground rap scene, traveling
around Baltimore, Chicago,
throughout Ohio, and will be
visiting the West Coast with
a one-time presentation in
Astoria.
At 26, Tesinsky has tak-
en photos around the world,
traveling to more countries
than most might ever aim to
in a lifetime. That travel has
brought him to Ethiopia, Ja-
maica, Japan, Thailand, In-
dia, eastern Europe and more
in search of “people stories.”
Through the medium of
photographic series, Tesin-
sky aims to express the deep
views of his chosen subjects:
“Children of Islam” pres-
ents revolutionary youths
of Iran; “Jah People” docu-
ments the living legends of
Reggae music and the culture
of Rastafarians in Jamaica;
“Dictator or Gay” captures
gay and lesbian activists in
Belarus, punks in Berlin, ex-
orcism in Ethiopa and prosti-
tution in Thailand, revealing
the dynamics of subcultures
through vivid, up-close and
personal photography.
Eventually, Tesinsky end-
ed up enrolling in a photog-
raphy school. Though his
schooling helped solidify his
passion, Tesinsky was impa-
