GPAG: Photography Composition Workshop for Every Sort

A Hands-On Workshop – No experience necessary. Bring a lunch or buy one.
With Michael Healey

When registering for this workshop send in a photo you’d like to discuss from the POV of composition. In class, tell us about the image and what attracted you to take the photograph.

Before the workshop look through the “Elements of Composition” online. Search “StudioBinder the Elements of Composition”, download the free guide to photographic composition. Or, learn as you go at the workshop.

At the workshop, we’ll go though composition guidelines using photos by famous photographers too illustrate guidelines, analyse, and critique the photos.

Art Exhibition: SCAC – Jackie Dives

to June 13. Of Course This Hurts is a photography project that intimately documents the toxic drug supply crisis through the lives of people who are being impacted by this public health emergency. The images explore love, grief, bodily autonomy, trauma, and healing, as experienced by drug policy activists, frontline workers, people who use drugs, and their family members in British Columbia, where overdose is the leading cause of death for people aged 10-59.

Its’ aim is to involve the broadest range of local artists, to acknowledge the role of the arts in our community, and to celebrate the extraordinary diversity in materials, forms and approach.
