Analog Weekend

In this two-day workshop, participants will immerse themselves deeply in the world of analog black-and-white photography—from the deliberate act of taking a photo to developing their own prints in the darkroom. The workshop combines hands-on photography, image analysis, and technical darkroom work.

Together, we’ll explore the fundamentals of analog photography in theory and practice and go on a photographic excursion in search of suitable subjects. Afterward, everyone will develop their own film, select their favorite shots, and then create their own print in the darkroom using an enlarger and photographic paper. Step by step, genuine analog prints emerge from your own perspective.

In addition to his artistic practice, he develops his work independently in an analog darkroom and engages intensively with experimental and abstract processes.
