Workshop Details | Into the Ether, with Joni Sternbach

This two-day workshop explores photography’s 19th century beginnings and provides context for understanding the relevance of traditional photographic processes in today’s changing photographic climate.

Students will learn the basics of how to pour collodion to make glass plate negatives and positives: ambrotypes and tintypes.

Students will work in small groups with reproduction cameras and vintage brass lenses to make their unique and instantaneous photographs.

All materials are supplied.

Joni Sternbach uses early photographic processes to create contemporary landscapes and seascapes. Her photography has taken her to some of the most desolate deserts in the American West to some of the most prized surf beaches on both coasts

Sternbach is an artist and educator and has taught at various institutions for many years. Her series, SurfLand, captures portraits of surfers in tintype, and was shown at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, in 2009. It will be touring with curatorial assistance until 2012.

Sternbach’s first monograph, SurfLand, was published in May 2009 by photolucida.

Her work is part of many public collections including the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego, CA and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. She is the recipient of several grants including NYFA and CAPS www.jonisternbach.com
