“No place is boring if you've had a good night's sleep and have a pocket full of unexposed film…”

Robert Adams

 

Taking inspiration from the work of legendary American landscape photographer Robert Adams, this year we will be examining landscape photography at the edges of the city. Instead of photographing iconic architecture within the city center we will be working at the periphery of the city; where urban/suburban landscapes are both complex and mysterious and the photograph is discovered only through committed observation.

During the course we will undertake onsite practical photographic workshops in two differing sites, although students will also be expected to visit these sites and make photographs during their own time. The course will result in the production of two large-scale photographic diptychs.

We will be using digital SLR cameras to undertake this project and onsite practical workshops will introduce students to the basics of camera controls.
