The first photograph contains only one thing and the last one contains all that was chosen by everyone. We will experiment different ways of photographing, and in the end we will be able to observe that everyone has produced different photographs with similar objects.
We will learn and experiment with composition, placing, studio light and natural light, connections between images, sequences, selecting and printing the photographs taken each day and building an exhibition.

Program The space of home becomes a representation of our lives over time. The comfort given by the places, objects and people that surround us make the spaces where we live very special. How can we "feel at home" regardless of where we are? During 5 days we will reflect and create a set of illustrations based on the concept of home space and object-book. We will create a small visual narrative, deconstructing the theme and starting from a sequence of folds, cuts and different shapes. These will serve as the basis and incentive each participant to imagine and develop their own narrative.
