Creatives by Nature

Inspired by nature, we’ll dive together into the exciting world of still life photography and set design. On a joint exploration of the surrounding area, we’ll set out in search of interesting natural materials. Using these materials, participants will create their own little worlds in the studio and stage them through the medium of photography. This process results in small works of art that are captured on camera.

Participants will learn the basics of photography, such as lighting and composition, in a playful way, engage consciously with natural materials, and discover their creative potential. They will develop their own visual concepts, design individual sets, and support one another through creative collaboration and exchange.

Studio Likeness is an interdisciplinary duo working in the fields of photography and design.
Julia Classen and Magdalena Lepka conceive and create narrative still lifes and photo illustrations for art projects, magazines, and advertising clients. They use photography and set design to create surreal worlds that often play with the viewer’s perception in a humorous way.
