A workshop where we will play around with photos, share family stories and think about how images can be sequenced to form narratives
About this Event

Barry Falk will be running a workshop on the theme of home, using archival images to look at family stories. The workshop will take the idea of the family album and reframe it as a piece of art. By sequencing images, we will explore ideas such as nostalgia, memory, and how images can frame both authentic and false narratives.

During the workshop participants will explore ways of putting together family photos and archival images that create a narrative. By carefully considering sequencing and juxtaposition of images we will think about how we tell a story through pictures and consider what image communicate when juxtaposed with one another.

This is a fun workshop where we can play around with photos, share family stories and think about how the archival overlaps the family album.

~ To participate please bring copies of family photos, or other images connected to personal memories, that can be used for the workshop (no larger than A5).

~ Barry will provide paper and miscellaneous archival images for making small zines or concertina books.
