The workshops of Piotr Zbierski are an intensive photographic journey to the interior of each student’s approach. This journey will explore questions and doubts that arise in your photographic practice and help you to progress and be more conscious as an artist. Zbierski will inspire you in the use of the photographic medium – film and others – to create work that stems from private and personal feelings, and that – during the process of creation – appears to become universal for the viewer.
Piotr Zbierski is a photographer and traveller, awarded in 2012 with Leica Oskar Barnack Newcomer Award and chosen in 2015 to be part of Regeneration3 by the Musée de l’Elysée. His work is exhibited internationally. Zbierski is a PhD candidate at the Polish National Film, Television and Theater School (PWSFTviT) in Lodz.
During the masterclass Zbierski will give presentations, lectures, consultations and reviews of your work, to inspire you and build a more critical relation with your own work. He will provide insight and advice relating to your photographic practice, preparing the pictures for printing and publication, and will teach practical ways of working with galleries and institutions.
The aim of the masterclass is to inspire you in your future work and impart a strong portion of experience and knowledge.
To apply: Please send us a portfolio of 10-20 low resolution images together with a short text about your artistic approach to: workshoptiff@gmail.com by July 5th.
There will be an open presentation of participants’ work on Tuesday 19 July at Sample-Studios as part of Cork Photo 2016.
