Workshop: Learn to critic your photos, Oct 24 2009 @ Kuona Trust

An opportunity to learn from professionals to inspire creativity and expand technical skills

Getting people to talk to you about your photos is a rare opportunity, so don’t waste it. This Saturday you will learn how to critic yours and others work. Let people talk…it’s their opinion, and your target audience should be important to you. Let them rant, and if you really have to, defend yourself afterward, once it’s all finished. Although — honestly — if you feel you have to defend yourself, you might want to take a step back and consider why

Some of you have requested we do this class to help you critic your own work and style. Please come with some of your images/pictures, which we will review during the workshop. These can be some of your very best images or what you consider your worst images. Also, remember that there’s no right or wrong in photography. Gross technical errors (vast exposure problems, for example) can be universally wrong, but artistic considerations are not universal. Hope to see you this Saturday at Kuona 10am- 1pm

10am – 1pm on Saturday October 24th – Please let’s try and keep time

This Week: PHOTOJOURNALISM
With Boniface Mwangi

Learn to take compelling and engaging photos for photojournalism

This week we are joined by Boniface Mwangi, an award-winning photographer and the project director on Picha- Mtaani, a UN-funded initiative that focuses on Reconciliation through photographic exhibitions and debate. His work has been published in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Sunday Times, International Herald Tribune and BBC Focus in Africa Magazine among other International publications. He is the first Kenyan to be named the CNN Africa Photojournalist of the Year 2008.

“I see myself as a visual artiste using photography as the vehicle for social change in my country, which has experienced a lot of impunity, the
latest manifestation being 2007 December’s political convulsions that left over 1000 dead and half a million displaced.”

Boniface was the eye of Kenyans during the post-election violence and showed courage and compassion to capture the images across the country that made newspaper headlines all over the world.

Photojournalism is a form of journalism that creates images in order to tell a news story. Photojournalism is distinguished from other close branches of photography by Timeliness, Objectivity and iut is Narrative. Come learn some more from Boniface this Saturday at Kuona 10am

Workshop: Artists Make Their Own Material, Oct 14 2009 @ RaMoMa

Why should artists in developing countries pay 1st World luxury prices for top quality artists colours when much of the pigment and minerals and Metal oxides come from Africa?

Visiting Artist Jeannette Unite will share the secrets of her own artist material that underpins her work on the African Industrial Landscape. South Africa’s rich and contentious mining histories provide the point of departure for Jeannette Unite’s work on the level of both the material and metaphor over the past decade.

Join the workshop by emailing Carol at oneoff@africaonline.co.ke. The workshop runs from 10am to 12pm and costs 1000ksh (or sponsored by request). Bring a shoe box, a dustbin bag (to wear) and latex gloves

Closely aligned with environmentally conscious art production, Unite’s body of work is site-specific in the sense that she has employed diamondiferous materials, minerals, metal oxides and sands from various significant sites in the production of her work, including making her own pastels with these materials. Toying with the traditional understanding of “value”, Unite has perpetrated her own brand of alchemy. For a project that began as an identification of wounds that don’t heal (“mining” as a reflection of a personal journey, nor unlike Freud’s parallel between psychoanalysis and archaeology, perhaps), the dense metaphorical possibilities contained in Unite’s geological materials have resulted in a slightly different take on the memory-history-landscape genre.

Learn to heal and improve concentration, emotional and physical well being.
Everybody and all ages are WELCOME

Qi Gong originated in China and has evolved over the last 2,000 to 3,000 years. It is an important element of Traditional Oriental Medicine and is the basis of Martial Arts practice through cultivating and directing vital energy ‘ Qi’ (Chi). Simple flowing, mostly standing, exercises to bring mind, breath and gentle physical movement into unison. Practice quickly increases vitality, raises energy levels and mood, improves agility and strength, and integrates mind and body. It can relieve chronic aches and pains and provides support in healing many different conditions.

Jeremy Quin began practicing Qi Gong almost two decades ago, aiding his recovery from serious illness. He studied with Wang Zhi-Xing and subsequently with The Venerable Nguyen Tinh Thong. Based in England, we are lucky that he is teaching again in Kenya. He also teaches in Europe and South America.

If you wish to arrange a class elsewhere or for more info, please call Jeremy on 0723 118358 or Sue on 0733 768844
