A Photo Walk
with Jem Southam
Thursday 30 May
2pm – 4pm
Fully Booked
Jem Southam will lead a walk from Kestle Barton during which he hopes to discuss approaches to photographing landscapes. The genre of ‘Landscape’ has gone through a period of significant transition during the past forty years, stimulated in part by a growing understanding of just how complex our relations to the places we live in and walk through are. Participants are invited to bring both cameras, thoughts and questions.
Email info@kestlebarton.co.uk or phone 01326 231811 (after 1 April) to book a place on the walk.
These events are supported by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
