IDEAS INTO ACTION
Long-term project first steps

JANUARY 27-28, 2018 | WORKSHOP WITH MATHIEU ASSELIN

Spazio Labo’ proudly presents a two-day workshop with Mathieu Asselin, photographer and author of the book Monsanto®: a Photographic Investigation which inspired Spazio Labo’s exhibition Monsanto®: the Book.

The workshop – what’s it about?

One of the biggest challenges for photographers wanting to start a long term project is: starting the project itself. Sometimes the task of planning can feel like a mountain impossible to climb, so many questions with no clear answers that can keep photographers turning in circles and away from materializing the idea.

This 2 days workshop is specially designed to structure the practical challenges that come with short, medium or long term photographic projects, giving photographers the tools they need to structure and organize a project and, most importantly, to give their idea the start-kick it needs to move forward.

We will discuss together the ideas of each participant and we will deeply analyze each project to find the right questions, the right answers, to learn some “tricks” and pieces of advice on how to best structure one’s work.

Workshop’s themes:

Students will discuss their project and the challenges raised by it.
Opening doors: which and how. There are many ways to access what we need, choosing the right doors its key.
Organization, structure and finding the way that fits you.
Targeted Q&A to address the specific needs of each participants.
