In this workshop, Erin Kice, local artist and co-founder of Nashville Community Darkroom, will teach the basics of chemistry, light exposure, and multiple historic photo processes. On Day 1, study key iconic photographs and learn about early twentieth-century techniques. On Day 2, following a guided tour of the Frist exhibition World War I and American Art, practice creating your own photographic images in the Frist Center studios, where you will hand-coat papers with chemicals and tone images after development, combining historic and new processes for unique results. Photographic knowledge or experience is not required.
Erin Kice earned her BA and MA in photojournalism and mass communication from the University of Southern Mississippi. A film and alternative process photographer, she has taught traditional photography at all skill levels.
