Similar to last year’s land-based photo workshop, we invite photographers and non-photographers alike, to engage with the land in constructing site-specific assemblages using natural materials and then to photograph them. The image remains as a record of what will inevitably change and fade in the landscape. Over the weekend we will use alternative printing methods to turn digital images into tangible prints.
Participants will work with digital cameras, but are free to shoot film for later processing as well. Exercises and photography will take place around the farm property. Digital results will be reviewed onsite and historical cyanotype printing (blueprinting) will be experimented with. All materials will be provided and a basic camera or phone for making exposures is all that is required.
If you are interested in attending a workshop, please register online or contact us at workshops@scff.ca. Participants will stay the weekend at SCFF or arrive for each day’s session.
