It is not often that we have the opportunity to learn from a teacher like Irene Zottola. Although those of you connected with the world of photography will undoubtedly know her name and career, let us tell you a little more so you do not hesitate to mark this workshop in your calendar. You know that at Moments, we craft the content of the workshops with great care, so do not miss this opportunity!

As a creator, Irene Zottola explores the limits of analog photography to create a dreamlike and plastic world, often accompanying the images with text. As an educator, she uses photography as a mediation tool to foster creativity in vulnerable communities. In her visual universe, poetic images are generated in a unique way on different materials where nature, the body, and human relationships are the protagonists. In 2021, she received one of the Creation Grants awarded by VEGAP and was selected for the ART(e)gileak artistic residency of BBK with a participatory photography project.

She has exhibited at festivals in Spain, Italy, Morocco, and published in publishers such as Lumen, La Bella Varsovia, and magazines like Fisheye Magazine, LF, or Vostok. Winner of the V Edition of the Fotocanal Contest, she published Ícaro with Ediciones Anómalas, a finalist book in PhotoEspaña and in the Photobook Awards of Les reencontres d’Arles in 2022.

What will we experience in this workshop?
Starting with the visualization of some of the author's exhibitions, we will closely learn not only about the evolution of some works but also about the process from the inception of an idea, selection of the technique, creation, and development to addressing the space. After sharing some of her experiences, we will get hands-on with the resources we have, some provided by the author and others by the participants.

This collective creation lab will allow us to experiment with techniques such as cyanotype or photograms and different elements and materials, such as types of paper, fabrics, and also the use of words. Throughout the day, we will perform several tests from which we will select and assemble a collective installation as an exhibition in the space.
