Alphabet Experimental Photography Workshop

ALPHABET Experimental Photography Workshop (Adult Workshop)

Workshop Facilitators: Aslı Çelikel & Denef Huvaj

The ALPHABET Experimental Photography Workshop begins by offering participants a general theoretical introduction to experimental photography. Participants then choose a letter from A to Z and, starting from a word that begins with that letter, produce an original work. This creative process is put into practice through a cyanotype printing (sun printing) workshop.

The workshop program is structured as follows:

1. Theoretical Session and Printing Workshop (3 hours) : Participants receive in-person theoretical and practical training.

2. Exhibition and Evaluation Meeting (3 hours): All groups come together physically to exhibit their works and engage in collective discussion.

Note: Participants may optionally bring acetate-printed negative images or objects with them to the workshop.

* The event will take place at Basımhane İstanbul.

Address: Rasimpaşa Mahallesi, İskele Sokak No:16/A Kadıköy/İstanbul

* Registrations for the workshop will be accepted separately for six different groups, with dates specified on the program page. Each participant may apply to only one workshop group. Registration and participation in the Theoretical Session and Printing Workshop are sufficient to attend the related Exhibition and Evaluation Meeting. Each group is limited to a quota of 14 participants. Participation is open to everyone aged 18 and over, free of charge. All necessary materials will be provided at the workshop.

* For registration, go to the event’s detailed page of the workshop group you wish to join and create your registration via the "Register" button on the page. Registration for each group will be available 5 days before the group's first event date, and the "Register" button will become visible.
