Wednesday 13 April, 7pm
£8/6 conc.
A medium connected to modernity, photography has the amazing power to capture the reality, while simultaneously staging the unreal, the magical and the frightening. With the advances of technology, the creative power of photography has taken unprecedented dimensions, resulting often in a sense of the uncanny.
This panel discussion will explore various ways that the uncanny can be generated or exists in contemporary photography
