He graduated with a BA in Languages, Economics and Politics from Kingston University, London, in 1993, and subsequently worked for six years in the British capital as an assistant to renowned photographers such as Tif Hunter, Lord Snowdon, Henrik Knudsen, and Tony Latham, among others. This experience provided him with valuable insights into various photography disciplines including fashion, advertising, and portraiture.<\/p><p>In 2001, after obtaining his Cambridge\/RSA CELTA qualification in Barcelona, he arrived in Chile with the aim of immersing himself in Latin American culture, using photography as a tool to interact with this environment. Between 2009 and 2010, he enhanced his skills through specialized courses in Human Figure Photography and Urban Landscape at the School of Art of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile.<\/p><p>Since 2016, he has worked as a volunteer photographer with the Inspira Foundation, which contributes to improving public health environments through healing gardens in public hospitals. This collaboration culminated in the 2018 publication of &#8220;Healing Gardens,&#8221; documenting the positive impact of these spaces on patients and healthcare professionals.<\/p><p>Since 2014, he has established himself as an editorial and advertising photographer, specializing in hotels, restaurants, and gastronomy as a regular contributor to Chef &amp; Hotel Magazine. His recent commercial work includes photography for major hotel chains such as Singular Santiago, Marriott, and Novotel, advertising for Aethos men&#8217;s skincare products, and projects for the Chilean wine sector including Ruta de Vino Curic\u00f3 and Vi\u00f1a Tu\u00f1uman.<\/p><p>His exhibition career began with &#8220;Circus, Art and Heritage&#8221; at the GAM in 2011 and various venues through 2015, as part of Chile&#8217;s Bicentennial projects. His work, curated by artist and photographer Roberto Edwards, captured both performances and the intimate lives of circus artists. His latest exhibition, &#8220;Encounters Between Light and Shadow,&#8221; was presented at Espacio Zinc in Zapallar in 2024.<\/p><p>In 2014, he won second place in the Nikon International Contest for his photo story on the Peruvian Indigenous festival Quyllurit&#8217;i, and in 2023 was awarded first place in the Rural Tourism category of the APTUR Photography Contest in Chile. These recognitions reflect his ongoing project documenting the diversity of Indigenous peoples in Latin America through their festivals.<\/p><p>After earning his Master&#8217;s degree in Translation Studies from Portsmouth University in 2019 (validated by Universidad Cat\u00f3lica in 2023), he has deepened his work at the intersection of photography and cultural interpretation. As a translator and reviewer for Chungar\u00e1 Journal since 2021, and through collaboration with anthropologists and archaeologists, including projects at the San Miguel Museum in Arica documenting Chinchorro mummies, he continues to enrich his approach to cultural translation from a decolonial perspective.<\/p><p>While maintaining his photography and translation work, he has also expanded into web development since 2020, creating sites including dechilealpaladar.cl, centropsicomedico.cl, and menopausiaonline.cl, bringing his visual sensibility to digital platforms.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Biography Born in 1970 in Colchester, England, Nick Charlesworth&#8217;s childhood was marked by constant movement due to his father&#8217;s military career.
