We hunt down intriguing motives, shapes, and colour. We capture our discoveries with our cameras and then transform them into unique, new works of art. Using both digital and analog tool, we experiment with various creative techniques: we create collages, cut out elements, resemble them anew, or overlay images. So, we will develop our own visual worlds between photography and art. We look forward to seeing you!

How can we capture motion? In this digital photography workshop, we will experiment with different techniques. Sometimes, we’ll move the camera ourselves to create interesting effects. Other times, we’ll move in front of the lens to capture exciting moments. What is shutter speed abd what can we create with it? From razor-sharp snapshots to creative long-exposures, we’ll try it all. Bring your own camera or borrow one from the museum. We look forward to seeing you!
