A wooden box, a lens, a developer and a fixer, a reserve of paper, light and an exposure obtained thanks to an intimate relationship with the sun: the world of the minute photographer. Then comes the negative, followed by the positive. This art has the gift of adding imperfections to create unique and unrepeatable works.

COLLAGE AND FAMILY ARCHIVE WORKSHOP: "THIS IMAGE DOESN'T LOVE ME"
with Lucía Morón
Date ant time: 4 of July from 10:30 to 13:30
Price: 25 €
This is a creative and experimental workshop focused on engaging with family archives. Aimed at individuals with or without prior experience who are interested in expressing themselves through the visual arts, it offers a space to activate the creative process through observation, questioning, and reinterpreting images from the past. Using collage, writing, and photography, we will work with our own materials to explore new interpretations: challenging inherited narratives and generating alternative storytelling possibilities.
