POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

In our conversation with Michael Grieve, he refers to Evidence (1977), the influential photobook by Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel.

The two photographers searched through the archives of government agencies, corporations and research institutions, selecting images originally created to document everything from scientific experiments to industrial processes. Presented without captions or their original context, these photographs become strange, ambiguous and sometimes absurd — challenging our assumptions about photographic truth and the idea that a photograph can ever be objective.

What happens when we look at an image without knowing where it comes from, why it was made, or what it was supposed to prove?

A question worth sitting with.

The second episode of our podcast with Michael Grieve is out!

Can photography really be taught, or is it something you have to discover for yourself? And what does it mean to take responsibility as a photographer?

We explore these questions and discuss what it takes to develop not only your photographic skills, but also your way of seeing and thinking about the world.

Curious to hear our conversation? Listen to the second episode now. Link in bio!

What happens when Alec Soth walks into a workshop? And what can surprise even someone like Michael Grieve, who has spent years working with photographers and their projects?

Our conversation with @grievestudio started right there — with a workshop that had finished just the day before we sat down to record.

Curious what happened? Listen to the first episode of our podcast. Link in bio!

When you listen to the first episode of our podcast, you’ll hear Michael Grieve referring to the great artist Francis Bacon. And in many ways, it’s hard not to agree with the two of them, because they definitely know a thing or two about art ❤️

We’ve just published the first episode with a guest who connected the two of us. We met at one of his classes a few years ago. He is a photographer, writer, teacher, the founder of an independent school of photography in Berlin, Werkstatt, and recently a publisher too.

Most importantly, he is also a friend now. And we couldn’t be happier to sit down and talk to him.

So make yourself cosy, grab something to drink, and listen to the first part of our conversation with Michael Grieve.

Book binders ~ among one thousand falling pistachio leaves.

The premiere workshop in Amber came to its existence in our new born studio, while the moon grew spherical and whiter for every second over our heads.

With teachers carrying massive bags from Berlin filled with stitched artist books designed by @dienachtpublishing, together with artist and photographer @patriciamorosan - this 6 days experience transformed The Amber Houses to a village of experimentations and undressed ideas. A birthing of photo books, poetry rituals in the morning ocean and late dinners in the underground chamber - the Cave.
Needles, archived dreams, stalking wedding photos and documentations of old Greek men who were sent to exile during the Greek junta - filled the tables and floors all over the 3 hectares of Amber.
Patricia putting spells of time on handmade paper, colouring our world to Sepia through Cardamom tea.

People arrived with wonder and left with heads up high in the sky - holding tiny books filled with quiet pride.

Thank you, all of you, for letting us experiencing the metamorphosis from an idea to a finished book, for making us transform the Cave kitchen to a Taverna with my sister Patricia and for sharing this very beautiful time together in @theamberhouses

A seed dedicated for new projects and tales is sprouting in the ground.
Let the dance of creation start.
Viva the craft of hand!

WORK IN PROGRESS

Judith Weber @judithweber is a German photographer based in Berlin. Weber is an accomplished portrait photographer and during the @werkstattberlinfoto program she explored the notion of essence in the portrait and the difficulties of penetrating the surface of the sitter. This series is of Ana, photographed in one afternoon. A depiction of reality in fragments rather than a single image.

She explains:

Can a single portrait capture the essence of a person? When I first began to engage more seriously with photography, this was indeed my goal—a goal that now seems rather naive to me. Nevertheless, what still interests me about portraiture is the inner life of a person more than their outer appearance (the surface). Essentially, it is these "inner truths" that I try to capture in my images. Traits of character. States of mind. But also something that transcends the individual and points to something universal, something fundamentally human. Space and time play a subordinate role here, as the experience of basic human emotions is common to all of us and is not bound by place or time.

Applications for the 2025 program now open. Link in bio
