This Portfolio Development Cohort is specially created for visual artists or photographers who would like to develop their body of work and get mentoring at high level. This cohort can be divided into 1×3 hours or 2×1,5 hours. Together with your mentor you will be editing new and previous work, discuss your artistic vision and add new images if needed. Because it is hard to predict how many hours are needed or you would like to work together with your mentor we kept this cohort limited to 3 hours. If you would want more meetings, of course that is always possible. Your mentor will also give you homework, writing assignments. Also research is part of this development process. If you prefer we could even work towards an artistic statement. This cohort can be joined online or at our school. So if you live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, New York, Dubai or any other place and want to develop yourself, we would like to help you grow!!
DARKROOM
EXPERIENCE
We want to keep your first time in the Darkroom simple and it should be fun. So we invented a new way of analogue printing. You only need to bring a mobile device, preferably your phone, but a tablet will also do. You will print your own images but by an hybrid proces that we a few years ago successfully developed. Start creating your own analogue experience! Our 3 hour workshop costs 85 euro per person.
