Event Information

In this hands-on workshop, participants will use Instax ‘Polaroid’ cameras to explore and photograph urban spaces.

The session will begin with a discussion on ‘visual urbanism’ and how this once outdated technology has regained popularity among artists and professionals.

We’ll work on a brief focused on urban materialities - buildings, surfaces, and objects - and participants will also be encouraged to photograph people encountered during the session. The workshop coincides with the Gravesend Christmas lights switch-on, drawing many residents to the town centre.

After returning to Gravesend Fourth Portal, we’ll edit the images, which will be part of a pop-up exhibition on Wednesday, 20 November 2024 facilitated by the Fourth Portal for the Innovation Showcase 2024.

Meeting location: 10:30am, start 11.00am, Fourth Portal, Royal Pier Road, Gravesend, DA12 2BD
A 30-minute lunch break will take place from 12:30 – 1:00pm.
Total Time: 4 hours
All Materials, including Polaroid cameras provided.
