Are you interested to write about photography? Are you a writer, curator, journalist or researcher who wants to write about different issues through photography? Are you an educator who teaches photography and its ideas? Are you a photographer or artist who wants to write about your personal work?

This online workshop is designed for those who are interested to write about photography. It is also designed for those who want to to learn about the ideas and concepts surrounding photography.

The workshop aims to:

1. Equip you with the basics of writing: reading critically, raising questions, conducting interviews, verifying sources.
2. Introduce different methods to the writing of photography, and how you can tailor your text for different audiences.
3. Provide a brief overview of theories surrounding photography. (Most of the case examples will come from Southeast Asia.)

The workshop takes the form of Zoom meetings, featuring lectures, virtual hands-on/discussion sessions and one assignment. Outside of the Zoom meetings, group interactions will be facilitated in a Facebook group.

The workshop is conducted in English, but is specially designed for participants whose first language is not English. Priority will be given to applicants from Indonesia and Southeast Asia. International applicants are also welcome. There is a strict cap in terms of class size.
