Participants: Students of the Faculty of Arts, young photographers
Mentors: Ergys Vela, Orestia Kapidani

The series of masterclasses “Dark Room Lab” took place at the “Dugaja e Fotografise” (Photography Shop) an artist-run space for the exploration of old photography techniques and printing processes in the dark room.
The founder of the space, Erygs Vela, is a conceptual artist and professor of Photography in the Faculty of Arts, Shkoder. He focused on analogue photography techniques – both b/w and colors- and dark room printing showing the students how take pictures on roll films, how to print photos in dark room and the time involved in each of the processes.
Photographer Orestia Kapidani showed young photographers – who only work with digital – how to produce direct positive prints through contact prints or photograms.

A small exhibition with the work of the participants was organized at Dugaja e Fotografise.

This program was implemented as part of the Across Generations project sponsored by Goethe Zentrum Tirana.
