Building a Body of Work and Finding an Audience

Tue 06th Jun, 2023 – 7:00pm–9:00pm

Posted by APA New York


A conversation about the creation of a coherent and original body of photographs throughout all genres of the medium, and forming a sensibility that is unique to each and rejects conventional thinking. The discussion will center upon sustaining a meaningful relationship to our work, and how to move it forward in ways that maintain a sense of inquiry.

The discussion will then concern itself with how to share that work with an emphasis on originality being the best strategy for progress, and the many contexts available for work to be seen.

*This event is being presented in conjunction with Soho Photo Gallery's Portfolio Development Exhibition week.
