About 

This intensive hands-on workshop introduces participants to the experimental and poetic practice of pinhole photography through analogue image-making and darkroom processes. Designed for beginners, artists, photographers, and visual storytellers, the workshop explores the fundamentals of light, exposure, time, and image formation using handmade and pinhole cameras.

Participants will learn how to shoot with pinhole cameras, expose photographic paper, process images in the darkroom, and create unique silver gelatin prints through a slow and tactile photographic workflow. The workshop encourages experimentation, observation, and a deeper understanding of photography beyond digital automation.
