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.

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.

The workshop explored different aspects of multimedia storytelling, focusing on ways of combining photographs with sound, video and other elements to create linear, cinematic stories. The participants worked with existing bodies of work to create coherent multimedia pieces.
