Landscaped: Topographies of Desire, Trauma and Resilience with Morgain Bailey (Online Learning - Six Sessions)

Online Learning Class via Zoom

If you love photographing everyday landscapes and are inspired by the New Topographics photographers, this workshop is for you.
 
Together, we will create a temporary and supportive community that is designed to either assist you with current projects or inspire you with innovative assignments.
 
We will focus on developing the creative process, in conversation with the history of landscape representation in art and on creating deeper connections to the land through your creative practice.
 
Incorporating issues of climate change, social justice and history in your work will be encouraged. The workshop format is designed to be responsive to each participant’s needs through customized slideshows that address the visual and conceptual problems that each individual is working through. We will create a safe space where everyone is encouraged to think deeply and where it is ok to fail as a part of creative growth.
 
Plan on creating prints and slideshows weekly, which will help you work in both physical and digital spaces. There will be weekly opportunities to talk about your work and receive feedback from Morgain and the group. At the end of the workshop, we will celebrate your hard work with a presentation of final portfolios to the group.
 
This workshop will leave you feeling inspired and equipped with new tools for engaging deeply with place through lens-based work.
 
This course is strictly limited to 12 students
