Saturday 16th March, 1pm
Andy Martin’s talk this Saturday has had to be cancelled. We are hoping to reschedule the talk for a date in the autumn.
—–
Andy works primarily with older, higher quality analogue processes – medium and large format film cameras to tell their stories. He is also one of a handful of people in the world specialising in a photographic technique known as wet collodion process which dates back to 1851.The resulting images are produced entirely by hand on sheets of metal and glass – tintypes and ambrotypes – with no two the same. This will be included in his talk.
Andy will also be talking about his night-time photography which documents lesser seen/never seen industrial and historic corners of Sunderland, Weardale and Co. Durham using traditional film techniques and long exposures to do so.
All talks are free for members and £5 for non-members. All talks, workshops and events are held in the Learning Room at the gallery unless stated otherwise.
