Workshop 1: Collaborating with the so-called Real World

By Mark Steinmetz

During the workshop, the participants were making work that describes the world but which also reflects their own psyche and temperament. The aim was to help the photographers connect more deeply to their own practice and to consider their work in a more expanded context.

Workshop 4: Photographing the Past

By Simon Norfolk

One of photography’s most interesting challenges is uncovering the often painful histories that surround us – their hiddenness, unsayability and the wreckage the past leaves behind. In this workshop, the students developed stories concerning local histories in Pelči, Kuldīga, Latvia or broader region of Eastern Europe.
