IMAGINE ME PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY MEETING

12/7/2015

0 Comments

 

Over the past few months we have been working on establishing a photographic society to extend the reach of the Imagine Me project and further support artists with disability.

On Saturday the 5th of December we had a meeting at Customs House in the city, during which we discussed our progress and further ideas for the Imagine Me Photographic Society. We also had presentations of photography by Imagine Me lead artist Sue Murray and past participant Alan Aldrich (these were recorded and will be available soon on the IMPS Google+ page).

So what is the Imagine Me Photographic Society?

The proposal is to establish an Imagine Me Photographic Society (IMPS) that will be artist with disability led, but with an integrated approach with participation of non-disabled photographers to foster a collaborative exchange of ideas between people with and without a disability and to encourage engagement of the families and/or carers of people with disability to participate. ​

The society will support participants of Imagine Me workshops to continue developing their individual creative practice. The IMPS will foster professional opportunities for artists with disability, and assist in building their capacity and new creative skills in photography and digital-image making. ​

The IMPS will create a platform and network where information can be shared about new technologies that enhance the abilities of people with a disability to participate and develop their individual photographic practice. The society will encourage a creative practice that emphasises experimentation and expression of ideas. We will encourage a high standard of photographic art that can be displayed and shared to members through the creation of an online portfolio.

The society will operate using Google+ communities as a platform, and to join you must be invited (to protect the privacy of our members). 

If you interested in joining the IMPS, please send us an email including your name and email address and we will send you an invitation!
