Practice Groups

Photography and art are very internal and individual practices, but there comes a time in the creative process where we exhaust our cranial resources, reach dead ends, and just need to bounce ideas and find inspiration from peers. Practice groups are intended to facilitate pairings of 2-8 photographers. Practice goups help keep each other engaged, supported, and accountable with weekly online check-ins.

Practice groups are an opportunity to explore and develop creative work in response to the prompts, themes, or goals of your particular group. Held once a week, practice groups begin with a short time of reflection and learning; everyone will then have the opportunity to share what they are working on with the group for responses, questions, and feedback. All levels are welcome.

Sequencing and Narratives with Erik Mace

Tuesdays April 12th - May 17th via Zoom, 7 - 8:30 pm EDT

Explore how small changes in how you sequence your work can impact your narratives and their emotional tension. Participants should either come with an in-progress project or be interested in starting a new project based on an existing set of photos. The goal by the end of the practice group is for each participant to have a final sequence of images to use for a book project.
