BlackLab at Impressions Gallery
New developments in technology have led to more choices than ever for artists and photographers wanting to self publish, and this workshop led by Liz Lock and Mishka Henner will explore the current devices that exist for getting your photographic work into print and book form.
Call for Entries: PRIVATE VIEW
BlackLab launches with a party featuring music, projections and slogans. The event will take place once submissions are in, edited, collated, DJs booked and a venue sorted. The theme for our launch is PRIVATE VIEW, showing found and new images inspired by erotica. As a guideline, please see a selection of images in our photo album. We want submissions that contributors consider to be erotic. These can be found images, images from your personal archive or images created especially for this project.
