Workshop: Creating with Architecture

Join Ballarat locals photographer Georgina Matherson and poet and historian Nadia Rhook for a hands-on workshop exploring the intersections of photography and poetry.

Saturday 23 May, 10am – 12pm

Engaging with the exterior of the National Centre for Photography, housed in the former Union Bank building, you will take photographs and write poetry in response to its layered histories. Through a series of guided exercises, the workshop considers how attention to both the visible and invisible aspects of a building can shape creative responses to place.

No prior experience in photography or writing is required.

There will be an option to develop work created during the workshop for possible inclusion in an online exhibition on the Ballarat Foto website.

This workshop is presented as part of Ballarat Heritage Festival and supported by Craig’s Royal Hotel.
