By now, you know that every once in a while (but not too often) I advertise what I do as part of this Mailing List. Today, I want to tell you that I'm offering two (online) workshops.
The first workshop centers on Image and Text. The idea is for participants to develop the beginnings (or possibly more) of a text-image piece: how do words next to pictures, how do words work with pictures? If you're curious about that and you've always wanted to try it, this workshop will be for you. For this workshop, you will want to have some pictures already. That way, you can then focus on creating the text.
The second workshop centers on Boredom. Here, we'll look into what boredom actually means. We'll find out why dismissing something as "boring" usually doesn't say anything about the thing we're talking about. In a nutshell, we'll vastly enrich our idea of what art is and/or can do. This workshop will include some readings, and participants are going to produce a small "boring" project (which obviously won't be boring at all). I'm really excited about the idea of this workshop, because I think all-too-often, photographers struggle with trying to make pictures of things that are mundane or maybe very familiar. Isn't the mundane boring? Well, no, and we'll find out why.
