LOOKING TO SEE WORKSHOP with SALLY BUCK

Join us for an immersive photography workshop where we'll guide you through a unique process of deep looking. As we explore individual photographs, we'll take you step-by-step through a series of exercises designed to slow down your gaze, allowing you to fully engage with each image – and with the multiple ways you experience it.

Through guided discussions, we’ll find the visual elements, layer-by-layer, to build up your perception of the artwork’s construction. This approach delays instant interpretation, giving you the time to fully sense the composition, find the significance of parts not immediately apparent, and then consider more meaningful understandings of each photograph.

Take this viewing approach with you to enrich future gallery and art-looking experiences. If you’re an artist, reverse-engineer it in your photo creation, and with your viewers, spark inquisitive conversations about your photos’ effects and their deeply-embedded, interdisciplinary meanings for buyers, writers and curators.

INSTRUCTOR
Sally Buck is an award winning photographer, street artist and art educator living in so-called Vancouver, Canada. Using photography and photo montage, she aims to capture the superimposed qualities of transitional spaces, the slide of multiple climates, and the confluence of visual cultures. Functioning in public, urban spaces, her artworks and workshops can embody our desire for organic growth within civic demarcations, our flourishing through non-prescribed activity, and our experience of change through eco-and art-historical storytelling.

Buck earned a Master’s degree in Visual and Performing Arts in Education at UBC and a B.A. (Honours) degree in Art History at Queen’s University, Canada. Her photographs and photomontages have been published editorially and exhibited in Canada, the US, and Europe. As an educator, she’s taught art interpretation at universities, galleries and museums including the Peggy Guggenheim Foundation in Venice, Italy and the Vancouver Art Gallery in Canada.
