We want to make photography and audio-visual accessible and available to anyone.

PINHOLE
We love building pop-ups darkroom anywhere, we have done more than 50 so far in schools, cultural institutions, youth clubs. Have fun while learning about light, photography, build your own camera made of cardboard boxes or tin, take a picture, and process it.
PHOTOGRAMS
Create your own images without a camera by using objects, nature, shapes, textures, layers, newspaper, and cutouts, paint with chemicals and with light: make your photograms in our pop-up darkroom wherever you are.
CAMERA OSCURA
Have you ever been inside a camera and observed the outside world from the inside? This is what you can do in a camera obscura. You can understand how the light travels, how photography was invented and works, how the light and lens affect your image, and meditate too.
CYANOTYPE
As the photosynthesis process itself, light gives life to everything, including images. We use the natural sunlight to create the blueprint or cyanotype. No need for a darkroom. We use personal or daily life objects, shapes, newspapers, and nature to create stunning prints.
ANTHOTYPE
Nature is an incredible source of image-making materials! You can use any flowers, plants, vegetables, fruits, and herbs to coat a paper or a cloth (anthotypes) or you can even print an image on a real leaf (chlorophyll prints). It does require very long hours of exposure.
LIGHT PAINTING
in Greek, PHOTO means ‘light’ and GRAPHY means ‘writing’. So why not using creativity, darkness, light, and long exposure to explore the unknown and experiment. You will be surprised.
STUDIO PORTRAITS
Having a professional portrait taken is not accessible to anyone and is a very empowering and therapeutic as well as a team-building and reflective experience. They can be formal, theme-based, fun, individual, groups or families, for your staff or the community or schools you work with.
STORYTELLING
We use a variety of creative and participatory approaches to engage people in creating and narrating their own stories through visual media or/and audio. Told in a group, stories are richer and can be healing, transformative and create dialogue and understanding,
ANTI-SELFIE (IDENTITY)
A great activity for exploring identity,representation, hopes and dreams, similarities and differences, past, present, and future and stimulating some powerful creative writing and self-discovery. Self-portraits with yourself, part of yourself or none of your yourself.
