Expose & Compose: Photographic Prompts, Workshop Led by Amber Wheeler Bacon
2024-08-14 18:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | 601 Bladen Street, Beaufort, SC, United States, South Carolina 29902, 601 Bladen Street, Beaufort, SC, United States, South Carolina 29902
Author Donna Baier Stein said that writers can use photography to “expand… meaning—not in terms of enlarging [an] original work, but in terms of offering more possibilities.” In this workshop, we use a combination of professional and amateur photography, including our own family photos, in conversation with poems and short prose to generate creative new work. We’ll use the unconscious subtexts of these photos, the befores and afters, and the memories they evoke. We’ll also take a look at the objective properties of the photographs, including composition and the objects within them to inspire us. The workshop will include 4 prompts, so come to this class ready to write. What creative possibilities are lying in wait in these photographs? Sign up and find out! All genres welcome!
This virtual workshop will be held via Zoom on August 14, 6:00-8:00 p.m., limited to 15 participants. (A minimum of 5 needed to hold the class.) $45/person.
